Trustees On Track

These are short video clips produced by the State Library in 2009 where several library trustees in the state of Utah share their experiences and thoughts on topics that every library board faces.

These videos are most effective when you watch them with other trustees so you can pause the video and discuss each topic as it applies specifically to your library and library board. Feel free to use this PDF guide to help your discussion of Chapters 1-4 get started.
