Case Study: Public Libraries of New Zealand achieves anxiety-free, streamlined board reporting with BoardPro

Public Libraries of New Zealand - Customer Case Study

Public Libraries of New Zealand (PLNZ), the peak body for public library managers representing 300+ public libraries and over 3,000 staff, faced recurring anxiety and inefficiency around board reporting—especially the monthly creation of detailed board packs and the management of meeting records. To solve this, PLNZ implemented BoardPro to modernize and simplify its governance processes.

BoardPro’s agenda builder, minute‑taking, motion recording and automated action‑reminder features gave PLNZ a centralised, online way to create consistent board packs, store records and run virtual meetings. The result was faster, more predictable reporting, cost and time savings, improved member engagement in meetings, and strong approval from the board after adopting BoardPro.
