Attorney hired as library director

“The Minneapolis Public Library Board on Thursday chose a former state official with no background in library management to be its new director.”

“Katherine G. “Kit” Hadley, until recently the commissioner of the Minnesota Housing Finance Agency, was offered the library job and has agreed to take it, a library official said.”

“The offer came after the board conducted final interviews with Hadley and the other top candidate, William Gordon, retired head of the American Library Association and a career librarian.” (from Pioneer Press)
