As a member-owned and purpose based cooperative, we value strong governance.

When you join Libro, you become an Owner. That means you have a say in how we do business and how our business impacts the communities where you live, work and play. Libro is a democracy where your voice matters and makes a difference, so we are proud to have a unique and award-winning Governance structure that ensures our Owners’ voices are heard.

We encourage you to stay informed with what’s going on in your community and engage with Libro by talking to your Owner Representative about issues and opportunities.

“It is always rewarding to have your voice requested by the decision makers – be it the CEO, a board member, branch manager, or branch staff, but most rewarding is interacting with fellow Libro owners. Sharing in their pride of ownership and understanding of the value of the co-operative movement.”

– Jeff McCallum
