its next Library Director.  The stellar staff, services, and programs under
its retiring Director have made the Library the heart and soul of its
communities.  The Library Board of Trustees seeks a proactive Director to
continue providing cutting edge technology, exploration and experimentation
as it builds a replacement for the Leonardtown Library (an $11 million
project approved in 2015).  The successful candidate will be a community
collaborator, a staff advocate, a tireless cheerleader for external
partnership development, and an energetic colleague working with a
seven-member governing Board of Trustees.  St. Mary's County Library serves
110,000 residents with a dedicated staff of 64 (46 FTEs) and a $3.4 million
annual operating budget from three distinct and unique libraries throughout
the County-Charlotte Hall, Lexington Park, and Leonardtown.
