Conflict of Interest (Board) Policy
(American Library Association)

Members of the Board shall not use their Board or District relationships for their personal gain. To ensure recognition of this responsibility, any Board member aware of a conflict of interest with a matter coming before the Board or any of its committees shall bring this to the attention of the Board or committee, shall not vote on the subject or attempt to influence the vote of others and shall not be counted in determining the quorum if that has not already been established for the meeting. These points shall be recorded in the Minutes of such meetings.
