MINOR
The bill was finalized from its 'Engrossed' version to the 'Enrolled' version, which is the official text signed into law. The primary substantive change is the correction of a formatting error in Section 26, where the word 'basis' was accidentally split across two lines in the previous version. This change ensures the text regarding library privileges for non-residents is clean and ready for official publication.
TECHNICAL
Corrected a line-break formatting error in Section 26 that split the word 'basis' across two lines, restoring the text to a standard, readable format.
