Sec. 3. (a) The corporate boundaries of the public library must be described in the resolution of establishment, conversion, transfer, or merger filed:

(1) in the office of the county recorder in the county where the administrative office of the public library is located; and

(2) with the Indiana state library.

(b) If the corporate boundaries of a unit and a Class 1 public library are coextensive, territory annexed by the unit becomes part of the library district if the annexed territory is not already part of another library district. Whenever a public library annexes territory under this subsection, the library board shall file a statement describing the annexed territory:

(1) in the office of the county recorder in the county where the administrative office of the public library is located; and

If the territory annexed by a unit is already a part of another library district, the territory remains a part of the other library district unless the library boards of both public libraries pass a resolution of transfer under section 4 of this chapter.
