Our Baxter Public Library Board of Trustees governs all aspects of our library. The board consists of five community members that serve a 6 year term. Our current board members are Donna Akins, Liz Kielly, Greg Pickett, Barb Schmidt and Leah Wall. The board meets the first Thursday of each month at 7:00 pm.
The library board has the following five primary roles.
