“Josh is a reliable Library Director with a practical approach to leadership. He understands fiscal and administrative expectations and is collaborative across departments – sorting through both the political and practical sides of local government.”

“I had the privilege of serving on the Board of Directors while Josh served as Library Director. In that capacity, I had a front-row seat to his leadership — and it is exceptional. In public meetings, internal discussions, and complex strategic conversations, he consistently identified the critical issues and framed them in a way that brought clarity, direction, and confidence to everyone involved. He understands public library systems from the inside out — operationally, financially, and politically. Josh navigates the realities of state and municipal budget constraints with discipline and creativity, ensuring that limited resources are maximized for the greatest community impact. Directors & Co reflects who Josh already is: a peer partner who understands the organizational and political pressures unique to public library leadership.”
