Nashville Public Library Director Kent Oliver will assume the role of Vice Chair of Alignment Nashville’s Board of Directors beginning in July 2022.

With over 50 years of experience in public libraries, Kent has been a driving force behind expanding NPL’s community education initiatives and strengthening partnerships with local organizations and Metro Schools. He is slated to retire from Nashville Public Library later this month after ten years of service.

Kent, who has served on Alignment Nashville’s Board since 2018, is positioned to assume the role of Board Chair in 2023. We are grateful to Kent for his commitment to our community and look forward to his leadership!
