These links will take you to two different review charts:

CITIES, VILLAGES, TOWNS, MUNICIPAL, TOWNSHIPS LIBRARY CHART

DISTRICT LIBRARY CHART

Your library’s documentation may be titled or organized differently than the sections on the chart but ultimately, everything in the chart should be covered somewhere in your plans, policies and procedures.

You can use this chart as a starting place with your board of directors to discuss the tasks ahead. Your board (along with the library director) can be divided into work groups of 1 or 2 people and each group can tackle a policy or plan. Of course some people will be sitting in on more than one group. If you foresee a major transition in leadership – directorship or board members, all the more reason to begin the discussion and division of labor at your NEXT board meeting.
