New developments in the fallout from the firing of the City of Waterloo’s chief librarian. The provincial Ministry of Tourism and Culture launched a probe into the workings of the Waterloo public library board after the firing of Cathy Matyas.
The board received word this week, the ministry has found no major issues with how it operates.
Wednesday’s Record reports ministry supervisor James Hamilton contacted board chair Tim Jackson and wrote investigators asked “about a number of board activities” and they “have learned of no substantive Public Library Act compliance issues through” their follow up work.
Some of those issues dealt with the timing of board meetings, board minutes, attendance records of board members, voting procedures and how long Jackson has served as board chair.
