New Requirement
All Tier 1 and Tier 2 public libraries must have a current (NO OLDER THAN 1/31/04) set of by-laws (Measure #7) and policies (Measure #8) on file at the State Library. A copy of the Library Ordinance will not meet Measure #7. For sample bylaws, see the Iowa Library Trustee’s Handbook, 2003, page 97. These documents are due 1/31/07 (request an extension if needed). One copy of the information should also be mailed to the Library Service Area.
