Library Trustees approve lending policy for new Library of Things
Library Trustees · Meeting of April 7, 2026
Marlborough Library Trustees approve lending policy for new Library of Things collection. Director Sara Belisle presented the three-week lending policy with waitlist capability for the Brigham Family Trust-funded collection; the director said the terms mirror the library's book lending policy and the library can adjust based on community use. The board approved the trust fund and state aid report, documenting use of state aid for museum passes, summer reading supplies, and professional development training on youth mental health for two staff members.
The trustees awarded $1,000 each to two students who tied for first place in the annual scholarship essay contest; one trustee recused themselves from the vote.
