As we reflect on what we are thankful for during the holiday season, I would like to remind you all to pause for a moment and be thankful for your fellow Cannon County citizens who serve on the Library Board of Trustees. The Library Board is mandated by state law and makes sure that the Public Library Laws of the State of Tennessee are followed. They are, by law, 7 individuals who have been appointed by the County Commission to serve in this unpaid, volunteer position, governing the operation of the Cannon County Library System. Our Cannon County Library Board meets monthly and the public is always welcome. Library Trustees administer the functions of the library via the Library Director, they set library policies, provide public relations help, plan future growth and goals, and give to our community in too many ways to count. So, the next time you see Angela Ott, Bill Bryson, Peggy Tate, Cary Lee Caputo, Nolan Travis, Dale Bush, and Regina Reed, please give them a big “thank you” for their help in sustaining this wonderful community resource—-YOUR Library System!
