Library Director Sarah Sanfilippo told the trustees on Wednesday that she has received applications for the open position.
"We posted the job shortly after she left, and we received a whole bunch of resumes," Sanfilippo said. "We are working through those and figuring out who we want to interview."
Russell-Scholl left her post in late January after seven years at the North Adams library, the first three as youth services assistant. She took a similar position at the Pittsfield library.
Otherwise, Sanfilippo told the trustees that things were quiet at the library with services greatly reduced during the pandemic.
"There is not a whole lot going on and it has been business as usual," she said.
