The Opportunity

In the role of Library Assistant, here’s an example of what you’ll be doing to make an impact:

Working as part of a team of staff and volunteers so that, together, you can provide a high-quality professional service to customers and colleagues that drives service improvement
Supporting and delivering initiatives on a range of key areas including literacy, well-being, IT learning sessions
Supporting the delivery of campaigns, activities and events to increase library use, book borrowing and return visits
Promoting the library confidently and effectively by being aware of the benefits of libraries and the positive impacts they have on the communities they serve
Helping to make sure the building is a safe, accessible and welcoming environment

About You
