Marion County library trustee training will be held Thursday at the Knoxville Public Library.

Library Consultant from the State Library of Iowa Maryann Mori will conduct the training. Knoxville Library Director Roslin Thompson tells KNIA/KRLS News a few years ago the state made it mandatory that trustees go through training given by a state consultant. Thompson says this tomorrow’s training session it titled “a people’s focused library.” Library trustees from across Marion County will take part in the training including seven from Knoxville, seven from Pella, four from Bussey, two from Pleasantville, and two from Melcher-Dallas.
