PUBLIC INTERVIEW DATE SET FOR BOSTON PUBLIC LIBRARY PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE FINALISTS
Candidates will be interviewed by BPL Board of Trustees;
Public invited to attend and observe

May 16, 2016 - Today, the Boston Public Library Presidential Search Committee announced they will present three candidates to be interviewed for the position of BPL President to the Library Board of Trustees on Saturday, May 21. The interviews are open to the public and will be held in the Commonwealth Salon at the Central Library in Copley Square beginning at 8 a.m. The candidate finalists will be announced on Thursday, May 19.
“The Search Committee has conducted a transparent and open process, and I commend them for that,” said Mayor Martin J. Walsh. “Now the BPL Board of Trustees has the task of selecting the candidate who demonstrates the leadership most suited to head the Boston Public Library, one of the oldest library systems in the nation.”
“The BPL Presidential Search Committee has held seven public listening sessions since November and had numerous conversations with Library leadership, staff, friends groups, and other committed stakeholders to determine the qualities they wanted to see in the next BPL president,” said John Palfrey, Chair of the Presidential Search Committee. “Thanks to the assistance of executive search firm, Spencer Stuart, the committee was able to narrow down an expansive field of potential candidates to three very qualified applicants.”
“The BPL Board of Trustees is eager to hear from the candidates the Search Committee will present,” said Robert Gallery, Chair of the BPL Board of Trustees. “We’re preparing interview questions that will dive deep into each candidate’s interest in the position and how that individual’s experience aligns with the mission of the Boston Public Library.”
The three candidate interviews will be conducted in succession by the BPL Board of Trustees beginning at 8 a.m. on May 21. Each interview will be one hour and 15 minutes in length, followed by a brief break between interviews. At the conclusion of the three interviews, the Trustees will vote to extend an offer of employment as President of the Boston Public Library to the selected finalist.
The public is invited to observe the interviews and may submit suggested interview questions prior to the meeting via the email address SearchChair@bpl.org.
