Library Board of Trustees Meeting
Monday, March 2, 8:30 am Washoe County Commission Chambers 1001 E. 9th Street

This month we're having a special meeting focused on hiring a new library director. This meeting will be held in the Washoe County Commission Chambers instead of in a library branch.
The public is welcome and encouraged to attend in person or view on YouTube. Agendas, minutes, and recordings of past board meetings are available on the library website. |
