| |||||||
| |||||||

| ||||||
3 | Sec. 7. Disposition of transferable property.
| ||||||
4 | (a) Except as provided in subsection (c), whenever a | ||||||
5 | responsible officer
considers it advantageous to
the State to | ||||||
6 | dispose of transferable property by trading it in for
credit on | ||||||
7 | a replacement of like nature, the responsible officer shall
| ||||||
8 | report the trade-in and replacement to the administrator on | ||||||
9 | forms furnished
by the latter. The exchange, trade or transfer | ||||||
10 | of "textbooks" as defined in
Section 18-17 of the School Code | ||||||
11 | between schools or school districts pursuant
to regulations | ||||||
12 | adopted by the State Board of Education under that Section
| ||||||
13 | shall not constitute a disposition of transferable property | ||||||
14 | within the
meaning of this Section, even though such exchange, | ||||||
15 | trade or transfer
occurs within 5 years after the textbooks are | ||||||
16 | first provided for loan
pursuant to Section 18-17 of the School | ||||||
17 | Code.
| ||||||
18 | (b) Except as provided in subsection (c), whenever it is | ||||||
19 | deemed
necessary to dispose of any item of
transferable | ||||||
20 | property, the administrator shall proceed to dispose of the
| ||||||
21 | property by sale or scrapping as the case may be, in whatever | ||||||
22 | manner he
considers most advantageous and most profitable to | ||||||
23 | the State.
Items of transferable property which would | ||||||
24 | ordinarily be scrapped and
disposed of by burning or by burial | ||||||
25 | in a landfill may be examined and a
determination made whether |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | the property should be recycled. This
determination and any | ||||||
2 | sale of recyclable property shall be in accordance
with rules | ||||||
3 | promulgated by the Administrator.
| ||||||
4 | When the administrator determines that property is to be | ||||||
5 | disposed of
by sale, he shall offer it first to the | ||||||
6 | municipalities, counties, and
school districts of the State and | ||||||
7 | to charitable, not-for-profit educational
and public health | ||||||
8 | organizations, including but not limited to medical
| ||||||
9 | institutions, clinics, hospitals, health centers, schools, | ||||||
10 | colleges,
universities, child care centers, museums, nursing | ||||||
11 | homes, programs for the
elderly, food banks, State Use | ||||||
12 | Sheltered Workshops and
the Boy and Girl Scouts of America, for | ||||||
13 | purchase at an appraised
value. Notice of inspection or viewing | ||||||
14 | dates and property lists
shall be distributed in the manner | ||||||
15 | provided in rules and regulations
promulgated by the | ||||||
16 | Administrator for that purpose.
| ||||||
17 | Electronic data processing equipment purchased and charged | ||||||
18 | to
appropriations may, at the discretion of the administrator, | ||||||
19 | be sold, pursuant
to contracts entered into by the Director of | ||||||
20 | Central Management Services or
the heads of agencies exempt | ||||||
21 | from "The Illinois Purchasing Act". However
such equipment | ||||||
22 | shall not be sold at prices less than the purchase cost
thereof | ||||||
23 | or depreciated value as determined by the administrator. No
| ||||||
24 | sale of the electronic data processing equipment and lease to | ||||||
25 | the State
by the purchaser of such equipment shall be made | ||||||
26 | under this Act unless
the Director of Central Management |
| |||||||
| |||||||
1 | Services finds
that such contracts are financially | ||||||
2 | advantageous to the State.
| ||||||
3 | Disposition of other transferable property by sale, except | ||||||
4 | sales
directly to local governmental units, school districts, | ||||||
5 | and not-for-profit
educational, charitable and public health | ||||||
6 | organizations, shall be subject
to the following minimum | ||||||
7 | conditions:
| ||||||
8 | (1) The administrator shall cause the property to be | ||||||
9 | advertised for
sale to the highest responsible bidder, | ||||||
10 | stating time, place, and terms
of such sale at least 7 days | ||||||
11 | prior to the time of sale and at least once
in a newspaper | ||||||
12 | having a general circulation in the county where the
| ||||||
13 | property is to be sold.
| ||||||
14 | (2) If no acceptable bids are received, the | ||||||
15 | administrator may then
sell the property in whatever manner | ||||||
16 | he considers most advantageous and
most profitable to the | ||||||
17 | State.
| ||||||
18 | (c) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Act, an | ||||||
19 | agency covered
by this Act may transfer books, serial | ||||||
20 | publications, or other library
materials that are transferable | ||||||
21 | property , or that have been withdrawn from the agency's library | ||||||
22 | collection through a regular collection evaluation process, to | ||||||

| ||||||
12 | In addition, an agency covered by this Act may sell or | ||||||
13 | exchange books, serial publications, and other library | ||||||
14 | materials that have been withdrawn from its library collection | ||||||
15 | through a regular collection evaluation process. Those items | ||||||
16 | may be sold to the public at library book sales or to book | ||||||
17 | dealers or may be offered through exchange to book dealers or | ||||||
18 | other organizations. Revenues generated from the sale of | ||||||
19 | withdrawn items shall be retained by the agency in a separate | ||||||
20 | account to be used solely for the purchase of library | ||||||
21 | materials; except that in the case of the State Library, | ||||||
22 | revenues from the sale of withdrawn items shall be deposited | ||||||
23 | into the State Library Fund to be used for the purposes stated | ||||||
24 | in Section 25 of the State Library Act. | ||||||
25 | For purposes of this subsection (c), "library materials" | ||||||
