The Cooperative Library Board meets the second Thursday of every month, with times and locations posted at Lakeland Headquarters and at member libraries.

Reasonable accommodations will be made so that all interested citizens within the Lakeland Library Cooperative service area may attend Cooperative Library Board meetings.
