Became Law

This Act is the result of the Joint Legislative Oversight and Sunset Committee's review of the Council on Libraries ("Council"). This Act updates the Council's membership composition, defines quorum, and adds other standard provisions, including member compensation and removal. One of the members that this Act adds to the Council is the president of the Delaware Association of School Libraries. At one time, the Department of Education had an Education Associate for Libraries, Media, and Technology, but that position no longer exists. This Act provides that, should the Department of Education ever re-establish that position or a position similar to it, the re-established position shall take the place of the president of the Delaware Association of School Librarians as a member on the Council. This Act also makes technical corrections to conform existing law to the standards of the Delaware Legislative Drafting Manual.
