Hi, Melissa,
We don’t have staff on Board committees, and in fact I don’t think it would be appropriate to do so. We do have outside community members on Board committees but never staff. And the Director is never a voting member of the Board committees.

committees
Hi all--
Happy Friday!
I have a question about board committees. Those here at Lapeer have traditionally had a staff member on them and currently, that process is causing some headaches. For me. Is staff involvement in a board committee--personnel, facilities--usual, or is the staff usually represented by the library director only?
Thank you for your input.
