About The Position
Church History Library Reference Consultants work collaboratively as part of the Public Services team of the Church History Library to assist patrons in developing research strategies and navigating library collections and resources on-site and remotely. They provide this assistance via brief interactions and through ongoing consultation relationships with researchers working on long-term projects. This consultant position requires deep subject matter expertise in multiple areas of Church history and knowledge of Library practices, policies, and the state of the library and archives fields. Church employees find joy and satisfaction in using their unique talents and abilities to further the Lord’s work.

They are literally working in His kingdom. Only members of the Church who are worthy of a temple recommend qualify for employment.
