Purpose
This legislation clarifies in state law that the Port Chester Rye Brook Public Library is a free association library
Summary of provisions
This legislation amends Section 2 of chapter 137 of the laws of 1877 relating to incorporating the library and reading room of the village of Port Chester in Westchester county to make clear that the Port Chester Rye Brook Public Library is a free association library as it has been operated as such throughout it's history.
Justification
