      (c) The keeping thereafter of such books in the judges’ chambers or other locations.

      (d) The transfer of all money in the law library fund to the county school district fund.

      (e) The abolishment of the offices of law library trustees, if any.

      2.  After such an ordinance takes effect, the county clerk shall not set aside the fees provided for in NRS 380.110.

      3.  The discontinuance of a law library does not alter the duty of the board of county commissioners to provide, at a publicly accessible location, all legal books and materials which the State Library and Archives Administrator has determined, pursuant to NRS 380.153, must be available in every county.
