Library Operations
At the heart of the Robert J. Kleberg Public Library is a dedicated team, led by the Library Director, who manages daily operations and ensures the library remains a vibrant and welcoming space for all. Supported by a passionate staff of nine full-time and two part-time employees, the library strives to offer exceptional services, programs, and resources that meet the community’s needs.
The Library Director works closely with the library’s nine-member Board, which provides strategic guidance and supports the library’s mission. Together, they establish policies, set goals, and ensure the library remains a cornerstone of education and community engagement.
Our efforts are also bolstered by the Friends of the Library, a vital group of volunteers who actively fundraise to enhance programs, services, and facilities. Their contributions help ensure the library can continue to grow and serve the people of Kleberg County with excellence.
