Responsibilities

• Set up the mobile library to welcome guests—both inside and outside! This includes organizing books, supplies, and tech to create a fun, functional, and welcoming space for all ages.
• Provide warm, helpful service to everyone who steps aboard. From assisting with library accounts to helping someone find their next favorite book or navigate our technology, you’ll make a lasting impact.
• Support our dynamic programming and outreach team! You might help with crafts, storytimes, community events—all designed to engage and inspire.
• Run through the opening and closing checklists, ensure materials are checked out and returned correctly, and help keep the mobile library stocked, clean, and ready to roll.
