(b) Public Library Certification. Upon the authorization by the

compliance with Education Code Sections 18703(c) and 18724(e).

If the library or jurisdiction is no longer in compliance, the head
librarian shall notify the Board no later than thirty days following such

its intent to participate and of its agreement to the provisions of the
Act and administrative regulations as they apply to the library's
participation. This notice shall be filed in such form and manner as
specified by the State Board by September 1 of the fiscal year preceding
active participation. The agreement shall remain in effect until rescinded
