Alice “Ali” McCauley has been named Assistant Director / Head of Adult Services for the Paulding County Carnegie Library system. “Ali follows in the steps of Diana Coy and Vicky Hull as the Assistant Director for our library,” stated Susan Pieper, Director of the library. “Ali’s friendly demeanor teamed with her knowledge of library procedures and policies and a lifetime of experience in a variety of fields gives her the background that is suited for making decisions in my absence. Ms. McCauley is a perfect fit for second in command at the library.”
Ali’s smile is the first a patron usually sees when entering the library. Her cheerful manner puts patrons at ease when asking for information. Ali leads the team at the circulation desk and monitors team scheduling system-wide. It is not unusual for her to receive an early morning phone call from any department or library location with a staffing issue. She solves problems quickly and efficiently.
In 2014, Ali made a decision to write something each day about why public libraries and specifically, the Paulding County Carnegie Library system mattered and posted her thoughts on social media. Ali’s insight, her ability to talk in plain words, and her passion for libraries in general were cemented. She is one of the library’s biggest cheerleaders and continues to be a good-will ambassador wherever she goes. She encourages everyone to visit the library and sign up for a library card.
Ms. McCauley hails originally from the Decatur, Indiana area, but has lived in Ohio for almost 40 years. She is the mother of two and grandmother to two perfect boys. Ali assumed her new position on June 1st. Stop by the main library in Paulding and say hello to Ali!
