The success of the Fenway Library Organization relies on collaboration of our member libraries through working groups. Committees are composed of interested representatives from each library and meet on a monthly basis to discuss ongoing issues, address developing concerns, and collaborate on new initiatives. Committee members represent their libraries’ interests in the greater FLO community and are responsible for relaying decisions and topics for discussion back to their respective libraries.

Committees are open to staff from full and/or affiliate member libraries, per each group’s rules. If you are interested in joining a committee, please inquire via [email protected]. More committee information is available to member libraries on the Members Site.
