Library board votes to keep current officers through mid‑February to comply with state statute
The Stevens Point Public Library Board voted to let the current slate of board officers continue in their roles until mid‑February 2026 to align with a state requirement that library boards elect officers annually within 30 days of the start of new terms.

At the meeting the Library Director noted that “by state statutes, we have discovered, the library board was required to elect officers annually,” and that the election timing is tied to when new terms begin in February. Board members said most officers indicated they were comfortable remaining in their positions through the reassessment window in February.

A board member moved to “have the current slate of officers continue in their roles until mid February” and the board voted in favor; the motion carried with all members present voting aye.

Nut graf: The vote preserves continuity in library leadership while the board complies with the statutory timing for officer elections; the board said members who wish to step down or change roles may do so when elections recur after the new terms begin.

No additional policy or structural changes were adopted at the meeting; the action was a time‑limited continuation of current officers.

Ending: The board moved on to correspondence after the vote; no further personnel actions were scheduled at this meeting.
