Check out the Library Board Meetings chapter for all the latest updates on New York State’s Open Meetings Law and how it applies to public and association libraries. This includes clarification of what documents need to be publicly available on the library’s web site in advance of board meetings; what should be included in the minutes; and an explanation about how to comply with the law when it comes to remote participation at open meetings by trustees.
Trustee responsibilities are small in number but broad in scope. This monthly Bulletin feature is designed to point out sections that are new in the updated version of the Handbook for Library Trustees of New York State.
