Explanation
(This amendment provides additional funding in the second year that will be used primarily to increase digital information resources available to the public at Virginia's local libraries. These resources will include eBooks, streaming media, audiobooks, and electronic databases. This funding would raise state aid to local libraries to slightly above the fiscal year 1999 appropriation, and to only 59 percent of the amount required by state law.)
