Jason Kucsma has been serving as Acting Director/Fiscal
Officer at the Toledo Lucas County Public Library since Feb.
2019. Kucsma’s 12 years of leadership in libraries comes
after nearly a decade leading a non-profit independent media
organization and publishing an internationally distributed
politics and culture magazine. He is a born-and-raised
Ohioan who earned his bachelor’s degree in Communication and
Master’s degree in American Culture Studies at Bowling Green
State University. He earned his Master’s degree in Library
and Information Science at the University of Arizona before
moving to New York City to work with public, academic,
school, and special libraries at the Metropolitan New York
Library Council.
Kucsma returned to Ohio in 2015 to assume the role of Deputy
Director at Toledo Lucas County Public Library where he has
helmed a leadership team in providing world-class library
services to the diverse communities of Lucas County. His
work in libraries is informed by his dedication to the role
public libraries play in building strong communities through
equitable access to information and technology — and the
expertise librarians bring to help navigate both.
The appointment is effective immediately. |
