About

Mission Statement

To inspire and facilitate library success by providing member libraries with the tools to serve, empower and lead their communities.

Vision Statement

We envision a network of amazing libraries. IFLS staff and our partner libraries collaborate to provide outstanding, engaged and inclusive services that contribute to informed, connected and literate communities.

Board of Trustees

The IFLS trustees are appointed by the 10 participating county boards. Trustees can be county board supervisors or citizens designees; either type can serve unlimited three-year terms. Each county is represented by 1-3 trustees, based on county population. Trustees meet six times each year (Jan., March, May, July, Sept. and Nov.) on the fourth Wednesday of the month. All meetings are open to the public and most are held in the IFLS conference room. During the first meeting of the year, the board selects its Executive Committee, which meets six times each year (Feb., April, June, Aug., Oct. and Dec.).
