About the Vacancy

The Library Board is composed of seven Trustees who are elected in the general election or are appointed by those Trustees who are serving terms to which they were elected. The term of office for appointed Trustees depends on the date of appointment, but can be no more than two years, after which the appointed Trustee must run for election. The current vacant seat, due to a trustee resignation, runs through April 2027. 

In order to provide quality library service to its residents, the Warrenville Public Library District requires a working team of a Board of Library Trustees who are informed and make necessary decisions. It is critical that each person appointed to the Board of Trustees be willing to perform the duties of a Trustee. By statute, trustees receive no payment or other compensation for their work.

What Trustees Do

• Oversee and approve the budget, levy and other financial responsibilities
• Set library policy
• Employ and evaluate the Executive Director
• Plan for the future
• Monitor the library’s effectiveness
• Be an advocate for the library
