Requires libraries to ensure that during all operating hours, there is at least one person present in the library who has completed training in how to recognize and respond to an opioid overdose, including the administration of an opioid antagonist. Requires the Director of the Department of Public Health to identify organizations qualified to offer the training. Provides that the health department of any county where a Library is located may provide, either directly or through providing necessary funds, a supply of opioid antagonists to the library. Allows the Department to adopt rules to implement the provisions. Makes conforming changes in the Pharmacy Practice Act.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Deletes reference to:
Replaces everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the introduced bill with the following changes. Makes changes to definitions. Requires a library, during operating hours, to take reasonable steps to have (rather than to ensure that there is) at least one person present in the library who has completed training in how to recognize and respond to an opioid overdose, including the administration of an opioid antagonist. Provides that training may (rather than shall) be conducted by an organization recognized for providing such training or may be created by the library using free resources available on the Department of Public Health's website or the Department of Human Services' website (rather than may be conducted online or in person). Provides that a library and its authorized personnel are immune from liability for the administration of an opioid antagonist under the provisions, except for wilful and wanton misconduct (rather than except for acts of gross recklessness or acts intended to cause harm). Specifies that a library may receive an opioid antagonist from any lawful source. Removes language allowing the Department of Human Services to adopt rules as necessary to implement the provisions. Removes changes to the Pharmacy Practice Act. Makes other changes.
