All amounts received under this section shall be remitted to the state treasurer in accordance with K.S.A. 75-4215, and amendments thereto. Upon receipt of each such remittance, the state treasurer shall deposit the entire amount in the state treasury to the credit of the state library fund and shall be distributed in accordance with this act and appropriation acts of the legislature upon warrants of the director of accounts and reports issued pursuant to vouchers approved by the state librarian or a person or persons designated by the state librarian. Amounts distributed under this section shall be distributed by the state librarian. Amounts distributed under this section shall be distributed in accordance with any applicable requirements of federal statutes or other federal law, however, to the extent not prohibited by federal statutes or other federal law, such distributions shall be made from time to time in accordance with the formula prescribed in K.S.A. 75-2555, and amendments thereto. The state library of Kansas board established under K.S.A. 75-2546, and amendments thereto, may adopt such plan as is required by federal statutes or other federal law relating to distribution of moneys under this section, and such plan shall be consistent with the requirements of this section to the extent authorized by federal statutes and other federal law. Vouchers approved by the state librarian under this section shall make distribution in accordance with any such plan and the requirements of this section. Nothing in this act shall be deemed to prohibit any local public library from making independent application to any federal agency for federal funds, and such applications by local public libraries are hereby authorized, and any federal funds received exclusively pursuant to such an application by a local public library may be expended without regard to the limitations of this act, and entitlements to grants-in-aid or federal moneys under this act shall not be reduced because of any funds so received.
