Role description

Trustee at The Morrab Library, Penzance

The Morrab Library in Penzance, Cornwall's only independent library established in 1818, is seeking new Trustees. They are interested in applications from people with a passion for libraries, and knowledge/skills relating to any of these areas: collection management and conservation, governance, building management, IT/Digital, marketing, fundraising and partnership working. 

Our most urgent need is for someone with experience of buildings management, but we would like to meet anyone who feels that being a trustee might be for them. For more information please contact the Morrab Library Honorary Secretary at [email protected]
