Reply to comment by BornFightingJS in The Library's perspective on the audit report by zweischeisse

The MSLA is a state agency, that doesn't mean that things under their purview are state agencies too.

For example, the county school system is under the purview of the MD state board of ed, that doesn't make the county schools a state agency.

That’s exactly what that means.

Here’s how you know: the policies and operations of both HCPSS and HCLS are not governed by or under the purview of the Howard County Council or County Executive, but rather, they are each governed by their own oversight boards, each of which is under the purview of (and reports to) their respective state agencies (the MSDE and MSLA, respectively).
