3 = County-Total: A county library district which includes the entire county in which it is located.

7 = Township Taxed to Pay Contract: Township levies a specific tax rate upon township property to pay for service received under contract from a nearby library district.

8 = Township, Partial, Taxed to Pay Contract: Same as Type 5 above, with the exception that revenues are raised by the township through a direct library tax.

9 = Township Validated: Same as Type 4 above, with the exception that the township has been taxed and served traditionally throughout the history of the library but no formal merger was adopted or recorded prior to conversion to the Public Library Law of 1947 as a town-township library.
