The Bay County Library System is accepting applications for a new Director. 

 

The Board of Trustees of the Bay County Library System seeks an energetic
and visionary leader as its next Library Director to continue a culture of
excellence and further strengthen library services to a county-wide
community of just over 103,000 people.  The Director reports to a five
member appointed board. A Class VI library, Bay County Library System
includes three branches, a main library, and a bookmobile.  The 2025
operating budget is $6.8 million, with an estimated 58 FTE's.  The system is
funded primarily by an operating millage of 1.75 mills, with a renewal
upcoming in 2026.

 

The Bay County Library System is a well-used community resource, seeing
increases in foot traffic, program attendance, and circulation over the past
several years. Due to the well-deserved retirement of the current director,
this is an excellent opportunity to lead a system with an innovative staff
and an engaged patron base.

 

Qualifications: Master's degree in library science from an ALA accredited
school.

 

Permanent professional certificate from the Library of Michigan as required
by state law for a Class VI library.

Ten years of public library experience, with a minimum of five years of
high-level administrative experience such as managing librarian, assistant
director or director.

Completion of a successful background check.
