Library director to retire

Library director to retire

TRAVERSE CITY — Traverse Area District Library's director will retire after five years in Traverse City and more than 40 years in the field.

Metta Lansdale  started as director in November 2009. She spent 20 years as a medical librarian in Ann Arbor and led the Chelsea District Library and Royal Oak Public Library before moving to Traverse City.
She's been on a medical leave since May and officially will retire on Wednesday to focus on her health.

"Metta has been an outstanding director for the library," said board Chairman Tom Kachadurian. "She has just revolutionized this library."

Lansdale sees her biggest accomplishment as updating the electronic check-out system and remodeling the main branch's circulation department.
