The first meeting of the LDL Board of Trustees at the Oregon Town Hall was highlighted by the appearance of new LDL Director Stephen Banister, who will begin his employment with the library Monday, February 23, 2026. Tensions ran high among Board members during the meeting. We hope Mr. Banister's direction will allow the Board to return to its governing role. Assistant Director for Technical Services Kara Haight gave a report on Polaris, the new Integrated Library System.
