About the Board
The Governing Board consists of the elected officers, elected representatives from library types and two elected at-large representatives.
The Governing Board meets a minimum of six (6) times a year, once in conjunction with the WYLD Network annual meeting. Each member of the Governing Board may have one vote.
The State Librarian is a permanent ex officio voting member.
Board Officers
WYLD Network members elect a President and Vice President/President-Elect. Officers may vote at the annual meeting only if they are member delegates.
The Recorder is not an officer and does not vote unless the Recorder is also a delegate.
Board Representatives
WYLD Network members elect representatives to the Governing Board based on type of library — academic; large public; small public; and one member to represent both school and special libraries. Two representatives are elected at-large from the WYLD Network.
Representatives need not be WYLD Network delegates. All serve staggered, two-year terms. Bylaws § I.F. – I.H. – June 2022
