Board of Trustees
The DBRL Board of Trustees meets at 7 p.m. each month on the first Thursday after the second Tuesday. In general, the Columbia Library District board meets just prior to the regional meeting. The Callaway County and Boone County Library District boards meet as needed. For information about upcoming board of trustees or committee meetings, please contact the Administrative office.
The DBRL Board of Trustees is made up of 19 volunteers. City library districts have nine members appointed by the mayor; trustees can serve up to three, three-year terms. County library district boards have five members appointed by their respective commissioners and serve four-year terms with no limit. A contract binds our three member library districts into a regional library system.
Each trustee serves on his/her own district board as well as the DBRL board. The DBRL board serves as the governing body and makes all library system policy and budget decisions.
