The Poudre River Public Library District is governed by an all-volunteer board of trustees appointed by city and county officials. The current board, composed of seven experienced community leaders, began its work immediately after being appointed in March, 2007.

The board is responsible for guiding the transition from a city library system to a broader library district; for overseeing library operations; and for developing a long-range vision for the new district. The board is committed to representing the interests of residents, practicing responsible fiscal management of public funds, and delivering quality services that are responsive to community needs. The board's monthly meetings are open to the public and community members may contact the board at libraryboard@poudrelibraries.org.
