Sec. 7.
The state librarian may exchange any of said reports for such other reports or law books as shall be approved by the chief justice of the supreme court, which reports or other books, procured by such exchange, shall be kept in the state library. After the publication of any volume under the provisions of this act the state librarian may sell the same at a price per volume not exceeding the actual cost to the state of publication thereof, to be determined by the board of state auditors, and 20 per cent added thereto.
The state librarian shall give a bond in the penal sum of 5,000 dollars to the state, conditioned for the faithful performance of the duties imposed by this act. He shall keep an account of all moneys received by him for said reports, and shall pay the same monthly to the state treasurer, who shall credit the same to the general fund. In case of sales to any 1 person at 1 time of 25 volumes or over, the 20 per cent aforesaid may be deducted from the selling price of such volumes.
When the edition of any volume authorized to be sold by the state librarian, shall be exhausted a new edition of the same number of volumes shall be printed, bound, and sold, as provided in this act relative to the first edition.
