CHENANGO COUNTY – Residents of Chenango County who have an interest in supporting, improving, and advocating for library services across the region have the opportunity to become a member of the Four County Library System (4CLS) Board of Trustees.

4CLS is a 501(c)(3) corporation that was founded in 1960 under the education laws of New York and chartered by the Board of Regents. It provides consolidated programs, services and specialized resources that help 43 public libraries serve communities in Broome, Chenango, Delaware and Otsego Counties.

A vacancy exists for one person from Chenango County.  Applicants must have a primary residence in Chenango County, and should have an interest not only in public library services but also in technology and customer service, particularly in the nonprofit sector. Trustees are volunteers who are elected for a five-year term, with the option of serving a second term, and they participate in approximately six board meetings per year.  The board’s primary responsibilities include governance, policy, and financial oversight.
