BACKGROUND: 

The Board of Trustees for the Henderson District Public Libraries (Board of Trustees) exists pursuant to NRS 379.025 (h). The Board of Trustees consists of five (5) competent persons appointed by the Clark County Board of County Commissioners and two (2) competent persons appointed by the Henderson City Council. 

Among its duties (NRS 379.025), the Board of Trustees shall hire a professional librarian to serve as the Executive Director of the Henderson Libraries, review and approve an annual budget, establish and review policies, and attend Board of Trustees meetings regularly.

Members serve four-year (4-year) terms and may not serve more than two (2) consecutive terms. Members must reside in the City of Henderson.

Bette Silverman was appointed to the Board of Trustees in June 2017 for a four-year (4-year) term that expired on June 1, 2021. She has expressed interest in being reappointed for an additional four-year (4-year) term.

Mark McGinty was also appointed to the Board of Trustees in June 2017 for a four-year (4-year) term that expired on June 1, 2021. He completed his second (2nd) term and is not eligible for reappointment. Staff launched a recruitment for that position on the Board of Trustees. Jennifer Andricopulos and Robert O’Brien submitted applications to be considered for appointment.

The County Commission is asked to reappoint Bette Silverman to the Board of Trustees for a four-year (4-year) term ending June 15, 2025. Additionally, the County Commission is asked to appoint either Jennifer Andricopulos or Robert O’Brien to the Board of Trustees for a four-year (4-year) term ending June 15, 2025.
