    The City website has a section entitled ” Boards,Commissions and other Advisory Board Opportunities”{www.lowellma.gov/depts/hr/board-postings} that directs interested individuals to send their resumes to the Human Relations Department .
    These openings on the Library Board are not posted at this time.
    Instead , the openings are mentioned on the City Manager’s blog and resumes are to be sent to his office.
    This may not be a major concern , but given the complaints about lack of diversity in recent city appointments , it is odd that the openings would not be publicized as expected.

    Arthur,
    Thanks for pointing this out. I’m following up with the HR office to be sure that the openings are listed on the website as well.
