Board of Trustees
Ken Barthelette, President of Christian County Library
Board of Trustees
The Foundations governing board and The Librarys
governing board are each composed of volunteers who
support the library .
Past tax levy increases have failed at the polls.
A fundraising organization was needed to show the people
of Christian County something is being done about lack of
funding, and a vehicle for donating money to the library was
a necessity.
The Christian County Library Foundation was formed in May
2013.

stay north of HWY 14 and as
close to HWY 160 as possible
Building size desired is
15,000-20,000 square feet
It is hard to define a cost with
100% accuracy
A rough calculation estimates
it would take $4.5M to $5.5M
to purchase land and build a
library in Nixa
The Stanley and Elaine Charitable Foundation can help us magnify our
impact and enrich the lives of many more members of our community in
a significant way, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Ball.
