Poudre River Public Library District Trustees are volunteers, jointly appointed by the City of Fort Collins and Larimer County to govern the Poudre River Public Library District. The Board adopts and oversees the budget, formulates bylaws and policies, conducts strategic planning, and hires and evaluates the library executive director.

Guided by its mission statement, the seven-member Board of Trustees is committed to representing the interests of residents, practicing responsible fiscal management of public funds, and delivering quality services that are responsive to the needs of Northern Colorado.

The board's monthly meetings are open to the public and community members may contact the board at libraryboard@poudrelibraries.org.
