Shoreline seeks library board candidates

The City of Shoreline invites interested citizens to apply for upcoming openings on our citizen advisory Library Board.

The City Council will appoint citizen volunteers to serve four year terms which will begin in April of 2014. Qualified candidates must live or own property in Shoreline. People who work in Shoreline also qualify to serve on the Library Board.

The Shoreline Library Board was formed by the City Council in the spring of 1996 to act as a liaison to the King County Library System Board of Trustees, the City Council and the citizens of Shoreline. It provides information, makes recommendations relating to the Shoreline and Richmond Beach Libraries, promotes programs and reviews library policies.

The Library Board consists of nine members and meets at 6:30pm the first Thursday of each odd numbered month. The meetings are held alternately at the Shoreline Library and the Richmond Beach Library.

Applications should be submitted by no later than 5pm on Friday, February 21, 2014 to the City of Shoreline City Clerk’s Office, 17500 Midvale Ave. North, Shoreline, WA 98133.

Community Service Applications are available to download on the City’s Website, Shoreline City Hall, Spartan Recreation Center, Shoreline Pool, Richmond Beach Library, and the Shoreline Library.
