Leadership

Pickerington Public Library is governed by the Library Board of Trustees consisting of seven members appointed by the Pickerington Local School District Board of Education. The PPL Bylaws are also available in the Library’s Administrative Offices.

According to the Ohio Revised Code, legal responsibility is vested in the Board, which is the policy-making body of the Library. The Board’s responsibilities include selection and appointment of the Director and Fiscal Officer; securing of funds adequate for a progressive program; and control of Library funds, property, and equipment. Subject to existing statutes and ordinances, it has power to determine the rules and regulations governing Library service and personnel.

Regular meetings of the Board are held the third Monday of the month (unless otherwise indicated). Board meetings are open to the public. Those wishing to speak before the Board need to sign in and indicate their intent to speak prior to the beginning of the Board meeting.
