# Las Vegas–Clark County Library District

Las Vegas–Clark County Library District (LVCCLD) is an independent government agency. Operations are overseen by a ten-member Board of Trustees, five appointed by the Clark County Commission and five appointed by the Las Vegas City Council. LVCCLD is headquartered at the Windmill Library Service Center at 7060 W. Windmill Ln., Las Vegas, NV
The district services Clark County, including Las Vegas; the system does not operate branches in Henderson and North Las Vegas. However, the North Las Vegas Library District and Boulder City Library have contracts with LVCCLD for automation services. This enables the North Las Vegas Library District's and Boulder City's items to appear in the online catalog of LVCCLD.
