Library announces new director
ROSA SALTER RODRIGUEZ | The Journal Gazette
The Allen County Public Library s new executive director comes from a leadership role at a Paducah, Kentucky, public library.
The local library s board of trustees Thursday afternoon voted 5-0 to hire Susan Baier, director of Paducah s McCracken County Public Library. The decision came during a virtual special meeting.
Baier will replace Greta Southard, the former Allen County library executive director, who resigned suddenly in August without explanation. Her five-year tenure was marked by controversy over the discarding of library materials and other issues.
The board conducted a nationwide search and earlier announced it had whittled prospects down to four candidates who were interviewed in December.
