The Library Board meets 10 time a year, from September to June.  Members of the public are welcome to attend.  These meetings are held the second Wednesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. at the Library in the McGinnis room.  

"Despite any other Act, Board meetings shall be open to the public except that where the Board is of the opinion that intimate financial or personal matters may be disclosed at a meeting and that the desirability of protecting against the consequences of public disclosure outweighs the desirability of holding the meeting in public, the Board may hold that meeting in the absence of the public"

Library Act 1990 16(3)

Despite the above the chairman may exclude any person from a meeting for improper behaviour.
