And an amazing public library that is looking for a new CEO due to a retirement this summer.

The CEO, with the Board, leads and participates in BCFL’s strategic planning, policy development, evaluation and assessment of Library operations, fundraising, and community engagement. The CEO oversees the BCFL’s finances, human resources, collection development, staff development, buildings and grounds, and technology. The CEO also leads and manages executive and support staff, and serves as the System and District Administrator for a federated system and state-designated service area, which includes its own seven library branches, as well as eleven additional public libraries located in Bucks County.”
The District will offer an attractive and competitive salary, negotiable from $140,000 and commensurate with the qualifications and experience of the selected candidate. A robust benefits package will also be provided.
