Queens Library chief Thomas Galante placed on paid leave pending results of city and federal investigations. (New York Daily News, 9/11/2014)

Bloodbath.  The vote to put the scandal-scarred library chief on leave followed a tumultuous summer in which 10 trustees, all Galante supporters, were forced off the nonprofit group’s 19-member board by Queens Borough President Melinda Katz and Mayor de Blasio.

According to the library's website, Queens Library is an autonomous library system, guided by a 19-member Board of Trustees alternately appointed by the Mayor of the City of New York and the Queens Borough President. The Mayor, the Public Advocate, the Comptroller, the Speaker of the City Council, and the Borough President are ex officio members.
