An Act to amend the education law, in relation to the establishment of libraries and library systems, making an appropriation for state aid for library service and repealing certain sections of such law. Note from the NY State library - "When a bill passes both houses of the New York State Legislature, the Governor's Counsel's Office collects memoranda and letters discussing the pros and cons of the bill. Materials collected may include a sponsor's memo justifying the lawmaker's introduction of the bill, counsels' statements, State agencies' official positions, study groups' comments, as well as the opinions of bar associations, lobbyists, corporations and private individuals. These items are put together in a file called the bill jacket and are are an important part of the legislative history."
