Founded in 1957, the purpose of the New Hampshire Library Trustees Association is to develop a more effective body of public library trustees; to aid in the awareness of their responsibilities and duties, to keep informed about library developments in general; and to be motivated to work together for better service.

Library Trustees are the link between the community and the library. The Board of Trustees is the governing body of the library.

Together, we pledge to offer the best possible library service to each community. How? By understanding the duties and responsibilities of the library trustee, by ensuring that library business is carried out in a legal and responsible manner. Public Libraries serve all ages and segments of the community from the preschooler to the senior citizen.

The New Hampshire Library Trustees Association provides:

• Regional Meetings

• Guidebook (Trustees Manual)

• Conferences

• Networking

• Newsletter

• Workshops

• Annual Trustee Orientation Sessions
