The North Dakota Library Coordinating Council (NDLCC) serves as the State Library’s advisory board and assists with the creation and implementation of the Library Vision strategic plan, including the awarding of Library Vision grants. The Governor appoints NDLCC members according to Century Code §54-24.4. Typically, the Council meets quarterly with two meetings held in-person and two via videoconference. The in-person meetings also include tours of libraries.
Several of the current members have terms that are ending on June 30, 2025, and they have reached their term limits. The NDLCC includes librarians and two citizens at large. One of the citizens at large positions is open.
If you are interested in serving on the Council, please send an e-mail to ndsladmn@nd.gov by May 15, 2025. Individuals interested in being considered for the NDLCC will need to complete the Governor’s board application, which can be found at https://apps.nd.gov/gov/boards/Application/PersonalInfo.
