Library Adult Programming Coordinator

What You’ll Do

As the Library Adult Programming Coordinator, you’ll help connect community members with learning opportunities and library resources through engaging adult programs, while supporting front-line library service.

Key responsibilities include coordinating adult programming; assisting patrons with questions; teaching research methods, library services, and basic computer skills; completing clerical work; maintaining files and records; and handling cash transactions as needed.

Required qualifications and skills:

• High school diploma (or equivalent) plus one year of related work experience, or an equivalent combination of education and experience
• Strong verbal and written communication skills
• Ability to build effective working relationships with co-workers and the public
• Knowledge of library research methodology and the ability to teach research skills
• Computer literacy and the ability to teach computer skills to patrons
• Ability to maintain records and count money
• Valid Colorado driver license

This full-time role includes Medical, Dental, Vision, and Life Insurance;
Retirement (401(a));
Sick leave; and access to an Employee Assistance Program (EAP).

Your day is spent in a public-facing, onsite library setting in Cortez, balancing time between planning upcoming adult events and being available at service points when patrons need help. You may draft flyers or simple written materials, update calendars, and keep program-related paperwork organized. Throughout the week you’ll interact with a wide range of adults - some who want quiet guidance with a computer task, others looking for resources to answer a specific question.

The schedule is primarily Monday-Friday, with periodic early evenings and at least one Saturday each month to match community needs.
