What is NOLS, and where does its revenue come from?
NOLS is a junior taxing district, organized under the laws of Washington, serving all of Clallam County. NOLS is primarily funded through property taxes. The Library also receives funding from timber and forest products harvested on public and private lands, as well as from fines, fees and miscellaneous charges. It is governed by a 5-member administrative Board of Trustees. Trustees are appointed at large by the Clallam County Commissioners for five-year terms. The system consists of the main Library in Port Angeles and branches in Clallam Bay, Forks and Sequim, as well as outreach services for people who cannot travel to the Library and an array of web-based services at www.nols.org. The Library offers a collection of more than 260,000 books, DVDs, CDs and other materials, as well as reference assistance, children’s programs and much more.
