The Secretary of State is authorized to determine grant eligibility for public library construction projects and shall determine the priority order for public library construction project grants to be made by the Secretary of State. When a grant eligibility has been determined for a public library construction project, the Secretary of State shall notify the public library of the dollar amount of the public library construction project's cost that the public library will be required to finance with non-grant funds in order to qualify to receive a public library construction project grant under this Act from the Secretary of State. The Secretary of State shall thereafter determine whether a grant shall be made.
