Bylaw Changes
Under the paragraph in the section on Committees that begins "The Programming Committee," add this new paragraph: "The Trustee Development Committee will make recommendations to the Board, and it will develop and review policies that promote and maintain an effective board, as defined by the MBLC trustee handbook."
The paragraph on the Library Service Committee that currently reads: "The Library Services Committee shall develop and review policies affecting the use of library facilities by the public, proposed by Library staff or board members, and make recommendations to the Board." will be changed to the following: "The Library Policy Committee shall review library policies affecting public services. Library staff or board members and board committees may make recommendations for additional policies. The role of the Library Policy Committee is to ensure policy is ready for the Board to consider. Public Services include: programs, displays, services, outreach, collections, art, hours, use of buildings and grounds, and patron conduct."
