- Five members represent Contra Costa County - each member of the Board of Supervisors appoints one Commissioner
- One member representing the Central Labor Council
The Commission application, interview, and appointment procedures vary for each city/town or special district. If you would like to express your interest in serving on the Library Commission, please contact the appropriate appointing authority for your community.
