So if I donate a pornographic novel to an elementary school in Illinois, besides being an asshole, have I put them in a position of having to circulate it or lose funding?

No library system is under any particular obligation to stock what you give them, much less accept donations to begin with. It's unclear why they would be, much less why this would be a "gotcha" in this context.

If they are under no obligation to stock any particular book, then what is the point of this law?

>>aidenn+Xg
The point is to take book decisions out of the hands of locals, and into the hands of librarians. In other words, it changes who gets to promote or censor books.

>>NoRelT+Oi
Do the librarians not count as locals?

I would think most librarians are people who are relatively local to their library.
