SP26 Library Student Workers
About The Position
The AMDA-LA Library is looking for students to join our team and help support the entire AMDA community. Library student workers are a vital partner in the Library’s many services, and act as a first point of contact for everyday Library users. Student workers truly play a crucial role in our Library’s services and have a wonderful opportunity to gain valuable job experience. If this job sounds like something you’d enjoy and excel at, please apply! In your application, please tell us more about yourself and why you think you’d be a great fit for the position - this could include a traditional employment resume (if you have one we’d love to see it), but we also would like you to write a paragraph or two describing yourself, your interests, why you want to work at the library, and anything else you’d like to share! The other important piece of information we need from you is your availability schedule. Specifically, we need to know when you have class/rehearsal time next semester, so that we can hire a group of students that can, together, cover all our library shifts in a given week.
