The Cleveland Law Library is a premier hybrid legal institution on the cutting edge of technology that provides services to a large base of private members, as well as various judges, public officials, and their respective staff members. The Cleveland Law Library is also accessible to members of the public one day a week. Ohio statutes carved out an additional role for the Cleveland Law Library in serving the local judiciary, elected officials in Cuyahoga County, and members of the Ohio General Assembly. In 2009, legislation expanded these statutory responsibilities to include all local governments and created a new entity called the Cuyahoga County Law Library Resources Board to oversee services to these constituencies and provide a venue for public access. Information about the Cuyahoga County Law Library Resources Board's operations, budget and statistics can be found within Cuyahoga County's Annual Budget.

Members are subject to appointment by the County Executive or serve as representatives of the Court of Common Pleas, the Cleveland Municipal Court, and the Prosecutor and must be vetted as capable by those entities.
