An Act relating to library systems; amending 11 O.S. 2021, Section 31-102, which relates to municipal library board appointments; modifying terms for members appointed to board; amending 65 O.S. 2021, Sections 2-103, 4-103, 4-203, and 154, which relate to library system board appointments; modifying terms for members appointed to board; and providing an effective date.

AI Summary

This bill modifies the terms of service and removal procedures for members of various library boards across Oklahoma. Specifically, it changes the conditions under which members of municipal library boards, the State Library Board, multicounty library system boards, rural single-county library system boards, and city-county library commissions can be removed from their positions. Previously, removal often required "misconduct or neglect of duty," but this bill generally allows for removal "without cause" or "at the pleasure of the appointing authority," meaning the appointing body can remove a member for any reason. The bill also specifies an effective date of November 1, 2026.
