Board of Trustees

Management and control of the NCW Libraries is vested in a seven-member Board of Trustees appointed jointly by the Chelan, Douglas, Ferry, Grant, and Okanogan County Commissioners. Board members are citizen volunteers who serve without salary. The Board establishes Library District policies, oversees finances, and levies the property tax that provides the majority of Library District funding.

Any member of the public is welcome to contact our Board of Trustees directly at board@ncwlibraries.org.
