Sno-Isle Libraries seeks new members for Board of Trustees

Sno-Isle Libraries seeks to appoint two new members to its Board of Trustees, inviting applications until July 13. The seven-member board, comprised of five members appointed by the Snohomish County Council and two by the Island County Commissioners, is essential in shaping library policies and annual budgets. Executive Director Eric Howard highlighted the board's role in fostering equitable access and enhancing community spaces. Eligible candidates must reside within the Sno-Isle Libraries District in Snohomish County, ensuring local representation. The successful appointees will begin their service in January 2026, with one candidate filling a partial one-year term.

Trustees serve seven-year terms, allowing for significant influence over library governance. This initiative reflects a commitment to addressing the unique needs of both Snohomish and Island counties. The board's actions impact community well-being and library success.
