Committees

Facilities

This committee is responsible for direction concerning not only the needs of the current facility but also those involved with a potential new facility. This could include decisions involving site selection, site feasibility studies, etc., and would serve as the de facto building committee at such time as construction is started.


Finance

This committee's responsibility is to oversee and recommend action to the board on matters of budget/finance and insurance. To view more financial records, go to our Transparency page.


Personnel

The Personnel Committee will work in concert with the library director in developing strategies for salary raises, benefit changes, etc. It may also consult with the library director and the president from time to time on personnel issues.


Policy and Planning

Primary responsibilities include policy approval, programs and events, and the annual review/revision of the Strategic Direction.

We have posted on our website our Library Policies.

Administrative Policies are listed below.
