We are pleased to announce the start of the 2017 SWAN Board election process. SWAN will have two open at-large position on the Board starting July 1, 2017. The SWAN Board is currently comprised of seven library directors elected from our SWAN member libraries.

Board member responsibilities include:

• Acting on issues affecting the long-term future of SWAN
