General Council

TRAILS is governed by a General Council (GC) made up of member library leaders (representatives), the TRAILS Executive Director (ex-officio, non-voting), and a Montana State Library representative (ex-officio, non-voting). The GC approves the budget and all strategic initiatives of the consortium.

Cabinet

The GC is directed by three officers (chair, secretary/chair elect, past chair) and is assisted by the Executive Director and a Staff Liaison. The officers, the Executive Director, and the Staff Liaison comprise a Cabinet to assist in the management of meetings and other General Council functions - the Cabinet does not act independently of the General Council.​​​​​​​​
