About The Position

One Role, a World of Impact Lyon College is looking for a versatile, energetic librarian to lead our resource sharing program and help shape how our campus community discovers, accesses, and preserves information. This isn't a one-note job - you'll move between reference desk, archives, classroom, and social media feed, all in the same week. At Lyon, you won't be a cog in a giant system. You'll be a visible, valued member of a close-knit library team where your ideas actually shape how we serve our campus. Small college, big impact!

Strong organizational skills and enjoyment of mentoring student staff
A collaborative spirit and genuine passion for removing barriers between people and information
