The Friends of Schlow Library is the behind-the-scenes group that helps us provide the quality service you've come to know and expect here at Schlow. Over 400 Friends members are led by a nine member board of directors who make decisions about how Friends money will be spent to support the library. They also work on special projects and programs to promote the library and make it a welcoming and active place. Membership in the Friends is open to any interested person or organization.

Schlow Library is governed by a nine member Board of Trustees appointed by the municipal governments in the Centre Region. Board members serve for three year terms and may only be reappointed once. They represent the community the library serves. The group is a mix of men and women who come from a variety of professions and backgrounds. Individuals appointed to the library board must have a commitment to the importance of library service and a willingness to devote the time and effort required.
