The Wise Practices series is an initiative of the BC Library Trustees Association and the Association of the BC Public Library Directors (ABCPLD)
This resource assumes that your library has the wise practice of the board chair and the library director sharing the responsibility and leadership for library director evaluation and compensation. Together, you strive to create a process and experience that includes, but is not limited to, what has been provided in this resource. This is not a prescriptive document telling you what you “must” do. Instead, please consider this as a starting point for conversations with your director or board chair.
