We're looking for someone who is reliable, takes pride in keeping things organized, and enjoys working both independently and as part of a team.

Candidates should have at least a 9th-grade education and the ability to accurately organize and shelve materials alphabetically and using the Dewey Decimal System. Basic computer skills are helpful, and we will be looking for someone who can learn the library's systems and procedures.

The successful candidate must be able to maintain patron confidentiality, follow instructions accurately, communicate effectively, and provide friendly and respectful service to the public.
