Library Trustees, Minutes & Agendas

The Board of Library Trustees is a six member board appointed to 3-year staggered terms by the Board of Selectmen (Town Charter, Article 3, Section 3, d).  In 1873 Town Meeting voted to establish a town library supported by the annual Dog Tax.  The 1874 March Town Meeting approved and chose the first Board of Trustees.  Massachusetts General Laws (Chap. 78, Sec. 7-12) dictate Public Library guidelines.

Meetings of the Board of Trustees are usually held monthly in the Library Trustees Room or Virtually.
