The library board currently comprises 12 trustees, five of whom were appointed by their respective townships (Kennett, East Marlborough, Pennsbury and Newlin) and seven at-large members from Kennett, Newlin, and New Garden townships, and Kennett Square Borough, the release said.
The board officers are Susan Mackey-Kallis, president; Karen Ammon, vice president/secretary; and Joan Weber, treasurer.
At the Sept. 15 meeting, Mackey-Kallis, a Villanova University communications professor, said she recently received a Fulbright Association award that would result in her spending five months teaching in Tokyo next year. She said she would not run for reelection as president; however, she said she hoped that she would be able to continue serving as a board member.
