An agency official representing the local library told the Pratt County commission that they plan to retire, targeting Sept. 1, 2027. The official said the library has grown programming over nine years and emphasized continuity as they prepare to hand administrative duties to a successor.
The official described recent library offerings and staffing changes, including expanded discovery passes for community attractions, support for local schools and three teachers receiving dyslexia-related training (amount cited in the record was unclear). "I'm retiring next year," the official said, adding that they plan to advertise the director role formally next spring and would prefer to fill the post from within Pratt County when possible. The official said they are beginning to scale some programs back to leave a manageable baseline for the next director.
