The Grand Forks Public Library Association Board of Trustees has appointed Mary Butterfield to the library board for a term ending in 2013.
The board of trustees for the Grand Forks Public Library Association governs the Grand Forks & District Public Library and is responsible for the overall governance of the library.
The library board works closely with the library director, library staff, and the Friends of the Library to ensure that the library is meeting the needs of the community.
Mary has returned to Grand Forks with her daughter after spending over a decade away to pursue her education. She is currently a doctoral student and is working on her thesis.
