Section 405:25-1-5 - Ineligibility notification

(a) When libraries are found to be ineligible for State Aid, ODL will notify the librarian and the City Manager, and shall state the reasons for ineligibility. The librarian will then have a period of two weeks from receipt of notification in which to submit additional evidence of eligibility. Such appeals shall be reviewed by the ODL administration and a final decision made.

(b) The Oklahoma Department of Libraries Board shall serve as an appeal board in the agency's execution of the State Aid Grants to Public Libraries. After the Oklahoma Department of Libraries administration denies a community's eligibility for state aid, a community may appeal the ineligibility for state aid by agency administration to the Oklahoma Department of Libraries Board at a special board meeting. The community must file the appeal to the Oklahoma Department of Libraries Board within seven days of receipt of the denial by the agency administration. The Board shall affirm the administration's determination unless it finds such determination is contrary to applicable rules.
