Bill Title: Amends the State Historical Library Act. Provides that selected past editions of newspapers of this State that are preserved under a program within the Lincoln Presidential Library shall be preserved in accordance with industry standards (rather than being microphotographed). Provides that, upon payment of the required fee, any person or organization shall be granted access to the preserved edition (rather than being supplied with prints requested to be made from the negatives of the microphotographs). Provides that the required fee shall be determined by the State Historian and shall be equal to the cost incurred by the Lincoln Presidential Library in granting such access (rather than the cost of supplying the prints). Makes other changes. Effective immediately.
