§ 752. Loan of computer software. 1. In the several cities and school
districts of the state, boards of education, trustees or such body or
officers as perform the function of such boards shall have the power and
duty to loan upon request of an individual or a group of individual
pupils, to all pupils defined in subdivision three of section seven
hundred fifty-one of this article, software programs. Software programs
loaned to such pupils attending private schools shall be software
programs which are designated for use in any public elementary or
secondary schools of the state or are approved by any board of
education, trustees or other school authorities. Such software programs
are to be loaned free to such children subject to such rules and
regulations as are or may be prescribed by the board of regents and such
boards of education, trustees or other school authorities.

2. No school district shall be required to loan software programs in
excess of the software programs owned or acquired by such district
pursuant to section seven hundred fifty-one of this article. Such
software programs shall be loaned on an equitable basis to children
defined in subdivision three of section seven hundred fifty-one of this
article attending in the current year. The payment of tuition under
article eighty-nine of this chapter is deemed to be an equitable loan to
children for whom such tuition is paid.
