Library Director - City of Beaverton, Oregon

Ranked in Money Magazine’s Best Places of Live, Beaverton truly is “The Best of Oregon.” 

Located seven miles west of Portland, Beaverton is home to more than 95,000 residents and brings a richness of cultural diversity in a larger city that has never lost its small-town heart. 

The Beaverton City Library is the second busiest library in the state of Oregon with one main and one branch, and it serves a regional population of 142,000. With over 820,000 visitors annually; 300,000 items checked out; 2,000 programs; and annual circulation of 3.3 million, the Library receives a great deal of support from the community. The ideal candidate will be actively invested in the City of Beaverton; visible, approachable, and accessible within the libraries and community; and will possess excellent communication and interpersonal skills.  The new Library Director will believe in the mission of libraries and, inherently, “sell the product.”  A Master's degree in library science from an ALA accredited school and 12 years’ experience as a professional Librarian in a full-service library, including 5 years in a senior management role is required.  The annual salary range is $96,755.76 to $129,664.44 DOQE, and the City provides an outstanding benefit package.
