Public library boards are governing boards, legal corporations with the authority to make policy and to govern the library's affairs under the Public Libraries Act, RSO 1990.
To find out more about library board structure, policies and procedures visit the Ontario Library Association website at www.accessola.com »
All of our board meeting minutes are recorded and posted to the website in the right column of the "Board" page. They are in PDF format so you will need to have a PDF reader such as Adobe Reader in order to open and read them.
Board meetings are held at the library or via Zoom platform on the 4th Wednesday of the month, at 7:00 pm with the exception of July and August. The public is always welcome to attend.
