Secretary of State Kim Wyman has appointed Sara Jones as the new Washington State librarian. Jones will oversee the Washington State Library, a division of the office of the Secretary of State. Among her responsibilities are developing and leading strategies that enhance public access to library materials, collections, and services; safeguarding the state library's role as a historical asset and repository for government documents and publications; and working with the Institute of Museum and Library Services to meet the needs of the state's libraries. Jones comes to Washington from Marin County, Calif., where she served as director of the Marin County Free Library since 2013. Previously, she held positions in Nevada libraries for 25 years.
