Library Board

The Library Board was established by City ordinance in 1898. Nine trustees are appointed by the Mayor, subject to approval by the City Council. The Library facilities were made possible in 1929 by a gift from the family of Kersey Coates Reed and again in 1976 the same family made possible the expansion of the building.

The Board is responsible for determining operating policies, which then are implemented and administered by a full-time professional Administrative Librarian. Policies established by the Board govern the operation of Library services and maintenance of the buildings and grounds.

The Board meets second Tuesday of the month at 7:30 p.m. at the Library.
