LIBRARY ANNOUNCES SOLE FINALIST FOR DIRECTOR POSITION
CUMMING, Georgia (October 16, 2024) – The Forsyth County Public Library (FCPL) Board of Trustees has selected Adrianne Junius as the sole finalist for the Library Director position.
The Board will vote to make an official appointment of the new Director at a called Library Board meeting on Wednesday, November 6, 2024, at 5:30 p.m. at the Cumming Library located at 585 Dahlonega Street in Cumming.
Junius has served as the Deputy Director of the Hall County Library System since 2019 and has a total of 15 years in library administration, including budget stewardship, operational efficiency, collection development, and construction management. She is a resident of Forsyth County and holds a master’s degree in Library Science (MLS) from the University of Maryland and a bachelor’s degree from the University of Georgia.
“Our goal was to find a dynamic library leader with a proven track record who would best serve Forsyth County residents. Adrianne’s extensive experience in library administration combined with her deep commitment to community engagement and staff development makes her the ideal candidate for us,” said FCPL Board Chair Christy Winters.
Junius will replace retiring FCPL Director Anna Lyle in January 2025. Lyle was appointed Director in 2015 by the Library Board of Trustees after serving 16 years in human resources and finance management at FCPL. Lyle is the second director in the Library’s history, following Jon McDaniel, who served as Director from 1996 to 2015.
