Super Trustee

Jas Cheema, Chair of the Surrey Libraries’ Board,  was awarded Super Trustee by the British Columbia Library Trustees Association (BCLTA) on May 12th.  The Super Trustee award recognizes trustees who have made a major contribution to their libraries. BCLTA represents the boards and trustees that govern local public libraries in British Columbia. Cheema has been an indispensable resource and advocate for Surrey Libraries, leading several milestone achievements in her time on the Board, including the development of the City Centre Library and as a Chair of the Literacy for Life Major Gifts Campaign. “Literacy is a key foundation for a healthy community.  I am helping build this foundation with my committee work.  I truly believe the fruits of our labours will be borne throughout the years and generations to come,” Cheema said
