Announcing our executive director transition

Today we are sorry to announce that later this year, after over eight years with the organization, the Santa Clara City Library Foundation & Friends (SCCLFF) will say farewell to Tracy Wingrove and will begin the transition and search process for our next executive director.  She wishes to pursue new challenges and we know she will be an asset to whichever organization she selects to work with next. She will be transitioning out of the foundation at the end of the calendar year which leaves us time to search for, select, and successfully transition in the very best candidate to continue her work. Our goal is to have some overlap time between Tracy and the new executive director.

SCCLFF has formed both a transition committee and a search committee to ensure a smooth and successful transition of leadership. Both committees have been meeting and set a timeline to begin searching for a new candidate in mid-August and select the next executive director by October. Our plan is on our website.

Kate Degelau-Pierce and Amee Sheth are continuing with SCCLFF. You can share your feedback with the foundation through any of our board members. We will keep you updated on the transition through our regular channels of communication: our website, newsletters, and social media.
