Library Board of Trustees

Library trustees are powerful advocates for libraries.  Through their coordination, hard work, and determination, they have the opportunity to increase the quality of life for their community.
 

As members of the library board, trustees serve on a volunteer basis. They are tasked with the duty of helping to direct the use of funds and set the policies of the library. 

In general, the library board of trustees has a role in determining the mission of the library, setting the policy that governs the library, hiring and evaluating a library director, and overseeing the general management of the library.
