Snow Day Question
by Director 15 Jan '24

15 Jan '24

Good morning everyone, Last year, my Board set our Inclement Weather Policy to require both the Director *and *one Board member to make the decision on whether or not the library is closed. I am running into issues already, with differing opinions from the Board members and they tend to judge the weather based on whether or not they (as Board members) could make it to the Library, but not taking considerations of staff safety into account. How is your Inclement Weather Policy set up? Does the Director have full authority to decide closings, or are your Board members involved in the process? I appreciate any and all replies and will happily compile responses and share out with the group if there's any interest. Thank you, Kelsey Rutkowski *--------------------------------------* *Library Director* *Indian River Area Library* 3546 S Straits Hwy PO Box 160 Indian River, MI 49749 (231) 238-8581 indianriverlibrary.org

The Executive Director will be responsible for providing quality public library service to the residents of Dauphin County through eight locations, a mobile library, a $7.8 million budget, and 132 FTE of staff. The library is a private, nonprofit corporation with 501(c)(3) status and is governed by a 17-member Board of Trustees-five appointed annually by the Dauphin County Commissioners, and 12 elected for three-year terms. Key initiatives include the development and execution of a new strategic plan, discovering new sources of funding and support, and continuing to foster an environment of growth and enthusiasm within the DCLS staff.

A full list of responsibilities and expectations are listed in the job description below. Qualifications: An American Library Association-accredited master of library science degree and five years of public library experience with at least five years of experience in an administrative or executive capacity are required.
