[Publib] Final days for Greenwich Library directorship opening

[Dan Bradbury]

Only a few days are remaining to submit your application as Director of the
Greenwich Library in Greenwich, CT.  

The Library Board is looking for an energetic leader to take this
outstanding Library to its next level of organizational excellence. Serving
62,755 residents through its exceptional system (120,000 s/f) of a Main
library and two branch libraries--one currently being renovated and
expanded--a staff of 167 (97 FTE) and a $9.5 million annual budget from
public and private sources, the right candidate can lead this Library to be
one of the premier public libraries in New England and the nation.  

The Greenwich Library Director reports to the Board of Trustees and works
closely with Town of Greenwich elected and appointed officials to serve
community needs and priorities.  And the Town of Greenwich loves its
Library--frequently citing proximity to the Library as desirable amenities
in real estate ads.  Additional information on the position, the Library and
the community, including a detailed job description, can be found at
http://www.gossagesager.com/Greenwichlinks.htm.

The position requires a master's degree in library science from an ALA
accredited program; and at least ten years of progressively responsible
library experience, six years of which were in an administrative position
managing professional staff and programs.  Successful leadership experience
in a similar sized library and proven experience working with a
policy-making board, collaborating with municipal officials and
administering labor contracts is highly desirable.  The starting salary
range is $115,000 - 135,687 (with placement dependent upon qualifications)
and an excellent fringe benefits package.  The position closes October 12.

If this position holds any interest for you, we would certainly welcome your
cover letter and resume.  Thank you for your consideration.   We look
forward to hearing from you.
