Approval of a major resource system's or regional library system's annual program and budget shall be certified by the state librarian in writing 60 days prior to the beginning of the state fiscal year. If, following consultation with the major resource system or regional library system, the state librarian, on behalf of the Texas State Library and Archives Commission, does not certify approval of the system's annual program of services and budget, the state librarian may recommend that the commission not contract with the major resource center, nonprofit corporation, or business until the plan is acceptably redrawn.
