Special Service Award Recipient

A special Service Award was presented to Terry L. Kauffman, Library Trustee of the Library System of Lancaster County who is stepping down as a member of the Board.

He has served on Planning Commission task forces and on a myriad of other organizations throughout the community. He also served as a Lancaster County Commissioner from 1991-1999.   Kauffman also possesses a broad knowledge of how Lancaster County operates and along with his extensive service as a volunteer throughout the Lancaster non-profit community; he has proven to be an effective leader for libraries.

The Lancaster County Board of Commissioners appointed him to serve on the Library System’s Board of Directors from 2000- 2003 and again in 2011, a post that he held until this month when he stepped down from serving on the Board. He has offered a rich historical perspective on how public libraries have evolved during the past 30 years. He is one of the Library System’s most valuable human assets.

He also served on the Lancaster County Public Library Task Force (2009 – 2010) that was formed to assess the state of library services in the county. His extensive knowledge of libraries in the county coupled with his commitment to keep the public libraries viable has been noteworthy. Kauffman is currently Vice President of Business Development for the ARRO Group.
