Keith Carlson, center, was recognized for his service to the East Central Regional Library system.   Library board members are limited to no more than three consecutive three-year terms, which Carlson has served, so he could not be re-appointed for 2015.  He is succeeded by Lindstrom resident William Schlumbohm Sr.  Carlson is pictured receiving a certificate of appreciation and an official mug from Carla Lydon, representing the regional library offices, and County Board Chair Rick Greene.  The Regional Library Board consists of three appointees from each of its six county members.
