Becoming a Trustee
The Coldwater representatives to the BDL Board are appointed by the Mayor of Coldwater and the other five BDL trustees are appointed by the Branch County Board of Commissioners, with input from the other local cities, villages, and townships partnering with the library to provide library service. Any member of the community interested in becoming a BDL Trustee may contact the Coldwater Mayor or the Branch County Board of Commissioners at least a couple of months before the term of a sitting BDL Trustee comes to an end.
