The Board of Trustees of the Richmond County Public Library is comprised of a five to nine member volunteer board whose members are appointed by the Richmond County Board of Supervisors. The Board of Trustees members serve a four-year term and may only serve two consecutive terms.
As noted in Title 42.1, Chapter 1 of the Code of Virginia, “the Boards' basic responsibilities include assuring that libraries are operated in a manner that best suites the needs of their communities. Boards are charged with hiring and evaluating the performance of Librarians, evaluating the operations of libraries, monitoring the expenditures of funds, and setting policies for the operation of libraries.”
