A bill introduced in the West Virginia State Senate today would require that the Division of Culture and History and the commissioner make specific use of the archives library in the West Virginia Cultural Center; prohibit the sale of food and drink in that building and merging the archives library with the lending library; locating the gift shop in the basement with the museum; and giving the Archives and History Commission oversight and authority over the state historian and archivist.
SB 328, introduced by Senators Boley, Helmick, Facemeyer, Green, Edgell, Yoder, Wells, Love, Bailey, Kessler and Sypolt has been assigned to the Senate Government Organization Committee for consideration.
