resources and
technologies for a limited period of time, enabling them to
use and
evaluate information resources new to them. Member libraries
may
participate by contacting the state board.
(c) The state board may allocate funds to develop, license,
distribute,
and support electronic files or databases to be used by members
of

this subchapter.
(5) The state board shall identify priorities, procedures,
and
eligible costs for cooperative, coordinated resource development
projects through subsequent rulemaking conducted under the
