Summary

This item proposes a restructuring of library supervisory roles within the Madison Public Library system. It involves deleting the existing "Librarian 3" classification and creating a new three-tiered "Library Supervisor" series (Levels 1, 2, and 3) within the same compensation group (CG18) but with adjusted ranges (8, 9, and 10 respectively). Several existing Librarian 3 positions will be recreated and reallocated to these new supervisor classifications based on their current responsibilities, including managing multiple library branches or systemwide programs. Additionally, two existing Librarian Supervisor positions will be reclassified as Library Supervisor 3, and a new vacant position (#5171) will be created as a Library Supervisor 1. The effective date for these changes is noted as February 19, 2023.

Citizen Impact

This is primarily an administrative change affecting library staff classifications and responsibilities. Residents should not experience any direct changes in library services or hours as a result of this reclassification.
