Fayette County is accepting applications for two open seats on its Library Board. The seven-member volunteer group is charged with reviewing plans and recommending policies for library services not governed by the county or a regional library system. Members serve four-year terms, and three are directly appointed by the Fayette County Board of Commissioners (the other four are appointed by Fayetteville, Peachtree City, Tyrone and Brooks).

The board usually meets at 4 p.m. on the third Tuesday of January, April, June and October at the county library at 1821 Heritage Park Way in Fayetteville. The term for the current open seats begins Jan. 1 and expires Dec. 31, 2024. Applicants must be Fayette County residents and list their relevant experience and their goals for the board. Application forms are available under Public Notices at www.fayettecountyga.gov, and must be returned to County Clerk Tameca Smith by Nov. 13. Information: 770-305-5103.
