<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Due to a retirement, the Canton Public Library is seeking a Department Head of Information Technology to oversee the IT Department. The Information Technology Department Head works under the Director and alongside the department heads of
Business Services, Circulation Services, Community Relations and Information Services. The successful candidate will demonstrate strategic thinking, long-range planning skills, confidentiality and discretion, excellence in service to internal and external
customers, highly-skilled management of both people and projects, and the ability to work across departments to reach the library’s goals.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The Canton Public Library, serving 90,000 residents of the Charter Township of Canton, is a nationally award-winning library and the busiest single-location public library in the state, located on the western edge of Wayne County in southeast
Michigan. Our independent public library is governed by a six-member Board of Trustees elected at-large every four years, who provide strategic and fiduciary governance as outlined in Michigan Public Act 164 of 1877. The library has a dedicated millage which
provides annual operating revenues of $5 million, employs just under 100 people (56 FTEs), and circulated 1.4 million items while welcoming 487,095 visitors in 2015.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormalCxSpMiddle"><b><o:p> </o:p></b></p>
