LIBRARY BOARD
The Library Board consists of board members (councillors selected from Knox City Council, City of Maroondah and the Shire of Yarra Ranges), principal officers (Eastern Regional Libraries Chief Executive and Corporate Manager) and council officers (managers at each of the 3 councils).
The role of the Library Board is to provide direction and governance and ensure best value for the library service.
The Board meet regularly throughout the year to discuss library issues, receive reports from library management and respond to questions from the public. The agenda, minutes and schedule for the board meetings can be found on the Board meetings page.
