Library Director-City of Irving (TX) Public Library
The City of Irving (Texas) Public Library<https://cityofirving.org/1054/Library> \
seeks a new Library Director - someone ready to work with and succeed with an \
incredible opportunity. With five locations (three new since 2011), a staff of 102, \
and a $7 million annual budget, the successful candidate will work closely with \
external and internal stakeholders to shape a new library vision. The director will \
focus on a new library strategic plan aligning the library to the community's needs \
for future library services and programs. Key opportunities include developing and \
implementing strategic goals, enhancing public access to new technologies, mentoring \
and coaching staff by creating staff development opportunities, and seeking new \
service delivery models. The library has excellent support from the Library Advisory \
Board, the Friends of the Library and the City of Irving.
Irving<http://www.cityofirving.org/> is centrally located between Dallas and Fort \
Worth and is home to more than 234,000 residents. Its thriving economy, combined with \
its proximity to the Dallas/Fort Worth International and Dallas Love Field airports, \
has made Irving a corporate powerhouse. The city's rich diversity is not only \
exhibited by its population or number of languages spoken by residents, but by the \
makeup of its business community. Irving is home to more than 8,500 local and \
multinational companies. Irving has been recognized as one of the top 10 Best City to \
Start a Career and Hardest Working City in America by WalletHub. Forbes listed Irving \
as the No. 1 Best City for Jobs in 2017. According to The Dallas Morning News' Best \
North Texas Cities for Millennials, the younger demographic ranks Irving in the top \
three, citing affordability, walkability and transportation access. Of Irving's 67.9 \
square miles of land area, more than 23-square miles are dedicated to master-planned \
developments and districts. Irving residents are also well served through the \
community's health care systems, and educational opportunities abound. Irving also \
boasts three fully-accredited institutions of higher learning: DeVry Institute of \
Technology, North Lake College and the University of Dallas. For more information \
about the City of Irving and the Irving Public Library, visit Irving \
Links<http://www.bradburymiller.com/irvinglinks.htm>.
Reporting to the Assistant City Manager, the Library Director plans, directs, and \
reviews the activities of the Library Services Department including the overall \
administrative functions at all locations. The director manages full- and part-time \
staff and manages the annual operating budget and capital improvement bond funds. \
Areas of responsibility include administrative management, fiscal management, \
personnel management, and space/facilities design and oversight. The director serves \
as a city department head and liaison to the community and works to establish \
positive collaborative relationships. For the complete position description, see \
Irving Public Library Director<http://www.bradburymiller.com/Irvingjobdesc.pdf>.
Qualifications. Minimum qualifications include a Master's degree in Library Science \
from an ALA-accredited program and a minimum of seven years of library experience \
with five years of supervisory experience. The successful candidate also will have a \
demonstrated record of developing and mentoring staff, facilities management, \
implementing new library service models, an outstanding customer service philosophy \
and successful community engagement. Experience working in a municipal environment is \
preferred.
Compensation. A starting salary range of $107,808-$130,000 (with placement \
negotiable, dependent upon experience and qualifications) and an excellent fringe \
benefits package.
