The Library Advisory Board (Board) acts as a liaison between the community and its government for the purpose of serving in an advisory capacity and providing recommendations, through the Library Director, to the City Manager and the City Council for overall improvements within the Library.
Board members are required to be registered voters, reside in the City of Riviera Beach, serve a one-year term and attend monthly meetings that are held the second Tuesday of each month.
Board members may be reappointed after their first year of service for as long as they wish to serve, per Council's approval.
The Library Advisory Board consists of five (5) regular members and two (2) alternate members. Currently, the Board is comprised of five (5) regular members and one (1) alternate member, with one (1) vacancy for a 2nd alternate member which completes the Board. The Library received an application from regular board member Marybeth Coffer (District 2), requesting to be reappointed as a regular board member. Mrs. Coffer was initially appointed to the Board on August 5, 2020, thereby completing one year of service.
