Related bill: HF966

AI Generated Summary

The proposed legislative bill SF No 392 would allow school districts in Minnesota to donate schoolbooks they no longer need, including library books, classroom books, and textbooks, along with their accompanying materials. These donations can be made to charitable organizations that are registered under section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and are recognized by the attorney general's office. The bill amends the existing law to permit these donations without the need for the school districts to follow the usual requirements for competitive bidding or other related legal constraints.
