Library Governance

Since 1994, the Small Library Management training program provides library skills education, from the fundamental to the managerial, to all who work in Texas small community libraries. 

We have gathered a wealth of information about library governance—including board resources, library policies, strategic planning, and succession planning—to ensure that effectively managed Texas public libraries can support their communities.
