The corporate authorities of any park district whose limits are
co-extensive with the limits of any city, village, or incorporated town
lying wholly within any congressional township, in which there is
established and maintained a free public library under
"The Illinois Local Library Law", approved
July 12, 1965, as heretofore or hereafter amended, or the corporate
authorities of any such city, village, or incorporated town having the
control or supervision of any public park or parks, may permit the board of
library trustees having control of such library or the board of trustees
of a library district whose geographical area of service includes all or
part of a public park or park district to erect and maintain in any public
park of such park district, city, village, or incorporated town, a library
building which shall be under the exclusive control and supervision of the
board of library trustees, so long as such building is
used as a free public library; and may contract with such board of library
trustees relative to the erection and maintenance and
administration thereof. Any portion of such building less than the whole
