Seeking New Trustees
The Montague Public Libraries seek intrepid library supporters to join the Library Trustees.

If you are interested in supporting and advocating for the Montague Public Libraries’ future-focused programs, materials, services, and building projects, then this may be the volunteer position for you!
The Trustees support the operations and initiatives of the libraries by attending monthly general meetings and by participating in at least one of four subcommittees, which meet periodically. The Trustees’ subcommittees include: Strategic Planning, Personnel, Building, and Budget.
Some recent projects that the Trustees helped facilitate include:
• Reviewing and supporting a grant-funded library accessibility plan
• Providing feedback on and supporting a request for a new library staff position
• Setting the project scope and design requirements to commission a new circulation desk from a local carpenter
• Assuring the integrity and quality of library collections by approving a new collection development policy.
The time commitment is typically 2-4 hours per month. All meetings are held virtually during the winter. You can find more information about the trustees’ work here: https://bit.ly/MPL-trustees
Those who wish to run for an open trustee position must pick up nomination papers from the Town Clerk at 1 Avenue A by Monday, March 31st and return completed papers by Tuesday, April 1st.
