Full job description

Salary: £25,989 - £26,824 pro rata

Hours per week: 15.25 hours

Interview date: Wednesday 1 st July 2026

Are you passionate about supporting others, enthusiastic about books and reading and confident using IT?

If so, we invite you to consider a rewarding opportunity to join our team at Royal Wootton Bassett, Cricklade and Purton Libraries. As a Community Library Assistant, your friendly and positive approach will play a key role in providing an excellent experience for our customers and volunteers.

Your responsibilities will include working independently to carry out computerised counter routines and completing administrative tasks that support the daily running of the library. A vital part of the role is assisting the Library Manager by working alongside and supporting our dedicated team of volunteers to deliver a community focused library service in Purton Library.

To be considered for this role, you should have at least 5 GCSEs, including English and Maths at grades A–C (or equivalent).

While customer service experience is essential, previous library experience is not required, as we provide comprehensive training in all aspects of library operations.

This post is based at Purton Library; however, as part of your regular working pattern, you will also be required to work at Royal Wootton Bassett and Cricklade Libraries.

Work pattern and location for this role is:

Week One

Tuesday 10am-1pm at Purton Library

Thursday 10am – 1pm at Royal Wootton Bassett Library and 3pm – 7pm at Cricklade Library

Friday 1.30pm – 5pm at Cricklade Library

Saturday 9.30am – 1pm at Cricklade Library

Week Two

Tuesday 10am-1pm at Purton Library

Thursday 10am – 1pm at Royal Wootton Bassett Library and 3pm – 7pm at Cricklade Library

Friday 1.30pm – 5pm at Cricklade Library

Join our team in promoting a love of reading for pleasure within a warm and welcoming library environment.
