The current board members (4 total)reviewed the eight eligible applications and forwarded four to be interviewed.Two of the current Library Advisory Board members, one KCLS staff person,as well as one city staff person,participated in the interview process.Interviews were held on March 30,2017.Two applicants did not make the scheduled interview,one due to illness and the other declined for personal reasons.

Jaime Greene is the current Executive Director for Renton Communities In Schools.Due to her educational background,community engagement,and previous board experience the Renton Library Advisory Board members and Community Services staff feel Ms.Greene would be a valuable addition to this board.
