- a) The public library board of trustees shall annually take action to decide whether to issue non-resident library cards during the ensuing 12 months. At that time, the non-resident library card fee formula and fee, if applicable, to be used will be determined and adopted.
- b) The public library board of trustees shall notify the regional library system within 30 days after the action taken and effective dates and fee formula as determined in this Part.
- c) The participating public library shall continue to honor the non-resident library cards issued by the library for the full term of purchase.
- d) Participating public libraries shall cooperate with other participating area public libraries and the regional library system and adjacent regional library systems to determine the appropriate non-resident service areas as stated in Section 3050.25.
- e) Nothing in this Part requires a public library to participate in the non-resident library card program. Non-participation in the non-resident library card program does not preclude a public library from applying for and receiving grant funds from the Illinois State Library as long as the public library complies with requirements of the specific grant program.
