The Board of Directors at the Pottstown Regional Public Library has appointed Holly Chang as the new Executive Director at the Library, effective December 23.
Chang’s appointment follows a short period when Holly served as “Co-interim Director” with Lisa Kraljevich, Youth Services Director, following the resignation of the former Executive Director, Michelle Kehoe.
Chang has been employed at the library for most of the last 20 years, most recently as the circulation manager.
She is a native of Pottstown, a graduate of Pottstown High School, and a graduate of Clarion University, where she is also currently enrolled in graduate studies.
Chang is well-known and recognized by many in the Pottstown area for her presence at the circulation desk, as well as her work as manager of the library’s passport acceptance facility, reference librarian, computer instructor, notary of the public, and coordinator for community service and adult volunteers.
Her goals for the Pottstown Library include “maintaining the high level of service to Pottstown area residents and businesses, as well as informing the community of the wide variety of services available.” “Fundraising and outreach are my two biggest challenges,” Change said.
“The transition to Holly will ensure that the details of managing our budget, our 100-year old building, and our collection will be in good hands," said Board President Chris Delp. "Holly will also manage Pottstown Library into the future of libraries.”
Former Executive Director, Michelle Kehoe departed the Library just weeks ago to take on a new opportunity as Director of “MCLINC”, the Montgomery County Library and Information Network Consortium.
MCLINC provides the infrastructure and services for all 16 libraries in Montgomery County. As a member of MCLINC, Pottstown Regional Public Library is pleased to benefit from Michelle’s expertise and familiarity with Pottstown's Library.
