Brad Sayre is the IT Director of Stark Library. Here he shares what his job entails, his favorite thing about Stark Library and what he has been reading lately.
Q. I understand you are the IT Director at Stark Library. Can you tell me what your job entails?
A. I advise the strategic direction for the library district’s technology infrastructure and provide oversight and management for the project and customer (co-worker) service activities of my department.
Examples of my focus areas would include patron service point technology, such as self-checkout or copy machines, computers for use by both staff and library patrons, internet and branch-network connectivity, and server architecture. All of this is a fancy way to say that I spend the majority of my waking moments in, or pondering about, meetings and then rely heavily on the expertise of the most high-functioning IT team I’ve ever had the opportunity to lead.
