Trustee Tips are intended to supplement CALTAC's Board Development materials
Dedicated to the memory of Michael Reagan, a gifted teacher and friend of libraries.
Usage
Trustee Tips may be used to stimulate a more-in-depth discussion of a topic included in Training sessions, or to cover topics pertinent to trustees beyond those included in the training curriculum. Also, as an option available to Board Presidents and Library Directors, a Trustee Tip may be used as a 10 minute topic for stimulation of discussion on a regular Board agenda, or they may be used as handouts at one meeting with an opportunity for comments and questions at the beginning of the next meeting.
Download the following tips:
