Trustees
Pennsylvania libraries rely on the wisdom, dedication and altruism of their trustees. As stewards and advocates, trustees serve best when they fully understand the scope and limitations of their roles and responsibilities. Commonwealth Libraries applauds trustees as they work toward more visibility for libraries and better service for their communities.
The documents attached here and, to the left under 'Trustees,' may assist in Board development.
