National Library Week

Hello!

If you have an extra few minutes over the next couple of days, please come in and fill out a butterfly for National Library Week.  The theme this year is "Libraries Transform."  Please write a sentence or two about how the library has transformed or had an impact on your life.  You can sign them or leave them anonymous.  We will be posting all of them on a display during the week.

Thanks so much!

ASC and SC positions

We have an opening for two Student Coordinator positions, to begin Summer Term. In addition, we are accepting applications for ASC positions for next year. At this time we know that we will have a Fall Term Temporary ASC position available, and other positions may become available. All current student assistants are eligible to apply for these positions. Please note that length, type and quality of service will be taken into consideration during the hiring process. If you are interested in applying, please read the following information carefully.

The full position descriptions are available on the student assistant website. Applicants should read these thoroughly and address specific work responsibilities in their application letter.

SC POSITION:

The salary level for an SC is $10.30 per hour. Please remember that SCs are expected to work very specific hours (which include both summer and December Term hours). Student Coordinators are also allowed to pick up a limited number of sub hours for Information Services Desk and Periodicals desk shifts. Specific hours to be shared by the two SCs include:

Academic Terms

Monday – Thursday             Friday             Sunday

9-Midnight                              5-8 p.m.           9-Midnight     

December Term

Monday – Thursday             Saturday                   

5-9:30 p.m.                              9:30-4 

Summer Term

Monday – Thursday             Friday             Saturday                    Sunday

5-9:30  p.m.                             5-8  p.m.          8:30-1  p.m.                 5-9:30  p.m.

                                                                        1-5:30  p.m.

ASC POSITIONS:

There is no increase in salary level for ASC positions. However, as these positions require additional responsibilities, they are a great addition to your resume! When asked to do letters of recommendations for students in these positions, we are always careful to indicate the additional responsibilities and the fact that the student was selected for one of just 3 positions. Please keep in mind that these positions require working 1-2 nights per week, a potential Saturday shift, and a 3 hour shift on Sunday. Assistant Student Coordinators are also allowed to pick up sub hours for Information Services Desk and Periodicals desk shifts. ASC positions do not require summer or December Term hours. Please note that if the persons filling a temporary position maintains an excellent work record, they will be given first consideration for any future ASC openings. Specific hours to be shared by the three ASCs include:

Academic Terms

Monday – Thursday             Saturday                    Sunday

5-9 p.m.                                   9 a.m.- 1 p.m.              12-3 p.m.

                                                1-5:30 p.m.                  3-6 p.m.

                                                                                    6-9 p.m.

Anyone wishing to apply for an ASC or SC position should email a professional letter of application to Belinda that indicates which position you are applying for and includes the number of terms you have worked and areas in which you have worked. Your letter should particularly address the reasons you feel especially qualified for the position. 

The deadline for applying for these positions is Friday, March 11.  Interviews will be conducted early in Spring Term.  Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions regarding these positions or the procedures for applying.
