s 20318. Realignment of Regional Library Networks.

(a) If any two or more regional library networks whose borders are
contiguous wish to realign their boundaries, a joint notice of intent,
approved by the regional network councils of the realigning regional
library networks, shall be filed with the state board no later than
September 1 of the fiscal year immediately preceding the effective date of
the realignment. Regional library network affiliation requests approved by
the institutional or public library jurisdictional governing body of each
member of the new regional library networks, and revised or new regional
library network plans as specified in Education Code Section 18840, shall
be filed with the state board no later than January 15 of the fiscal year
immediately preceding the effective date of the realignment.

(b) The state board's approval of requests for regional library network
realignments shall be based on the criteria for the establishment of
regional library networks specified in Section 20316 of this subchapter
and upon the state board's determination that the realignment provides at
least as effective a way of carrying out the purposes of the Act as would
be the case if the realignment did not occur.

(c) For purposes of determining the eligibility of the regional library
networks and their members to receive services and funds under other
provisions of the Act, a realignment approved by the state board shall be
considered effective beginning July 1 of the fiscal year immediately
following the fiscal year in which the realignment authorizations are
filed. The state board may approve an earlier effective date if it
determines that such action would best serve the purposes of the Act.
