§65-4-202.
   
   A rural single county library system may be created by resolution or
   ordinance approved by the board of county commissioners or by the
   governing bodies of all cities or towns of two thousand (2,000) or
   more according to the most recent federal decennial census within the
   proposed district, or by the county seat town if no city or town
   within the county has a population of at least two thousand (2,000),
   subject to approval by the Oklahoma Department of Libraries Board. The
   resolution and ordinances shall specify the type of system to be
   created, the county to be serviced, organization of the governing
   board of the system, and proposed financing including agreement to
   call for a vote of the people as necessary for special tax levies. The
   resolution shall constitute application for approval by the Oklahoma
   Department of Libraries Board when submitted to the Board.
   
   Upon approval of the proposed system by the Oklahoma Department of
   Libraries Board, the county, city and town governing bodies may
   proceed with appointment of the system board and financing.
   
   The system board may request demonstration library services by the
   Oklahoma Department of Libraries before approval of special tax levies
   and may request a grant of funds for interim services before
   collection of special tax levies by the people of the district.
   
   A rural single county library system may be proposed upon resolution
   or ordinance of the city and town governing bodies as provided in this
   section or upon presentation of petitions to the board of county
   commissioners of the county signed by not less than ten percent (10%)
   of the qualified electors of each county voting in the last general
   election requesting a vote on library funding. Upon receipt of such
   petitions, the board of county commissioners shall call a countywide
   vote on the proposed system funding. Upon approval of the proposed ad
   valorem levy in a countywide vote, the board of county commissioners
   shall submit application for approval of the system to the Oklahoma
   Department of Libraries Board. The application shall specify the type
   of system to be created, the county to be served, organization of the
   governing board of the system including a list of board members and
   their terms, and the financing arrangement including the record of the
   vote of the people for special tax levies.
   
   The board of county commissioners and the governing boards of cities
   and towns involved in creating the system and the governing board of
   the library system are authorized to enter into contracts and
   agreements with each other, other library systems, special libraries,
   school and college libraries, district boards of education, and the
   Oklahoma Department of Libraries as necessary to effect the purposes
   of this act.
   
   A rural single county system may be joined with another county or
   counties to form a multicounty library system upon action of the board
   of county commissioners. A multicounty system formed between a county
   having a rural single county system and other counties may be formed
   only upon compliance with the procedures for establishment of a
   multicounty library system set forth in the Oklahoma Statutes.
   
   A rural single county library system created under the provisions of
   this act may be terminated only by majority vote of qualified electors
   voting in an election called by petitions signed by not less than
   twenty percent (20%) of the qualified electors voting in the last
   preceding general election in the county.
