HB 2014 amends Arizona law requiring public library trustees in cities and towns to submit annual reports. It changes the deadline from the first Monday of July to the second Monday of July and adds a requirement for the library secretary to verify financial reports under oath. This bill directly affects local public library boards by modifying their reporting timeline and adding an oath verification step for financial records. The changes are administrative and procedural, with no new policy requirements beyond the updated reporting mechanics.
