EDC § 18011Div. 1 · Title 1 · Part 11 · Ch. 1.5 · Art. 1

Statute text

It is the intent of the Legislature under this chapter to initiate and examine a specific program providing equitable and adequate funds to the public libraries of the state which are established under various provisions of law, and which, historically dependent for their support on local property tax revenues, face a fiscal crisis as a result of ad valorem tax limitations imposed by Article XIIIA of the California Constitution, which fiscal crisis has not been sufficiently resolved through application of existing statutes.
