BOARDS & TRUSTEES
The library board 's role is to provide governance, overseeing the purpose, plans and policies of the library. The Board is the legal authority of the library and is the ultimate authority for decision-making. The nature of governance is proactive and focused on the future and on the relation of the organization to the community’s development. Together with the CEO, the library board shares the responsibility to ensure the efficiency and effectiveness of their library.
