Description

Position Title:

Library Assistant Location:
UCW Vancouver House and West Pender Campus (Hybrid)

Manager, Library and Learning Commons

Library Assistants are key members of the Library team and act as the first point of contact for student inquiries, which are generally related to front desk support, circulation, and basic reference transactions.

Additional duties may include cataloguing, managing the payment of fines, supporting Interlibrary Loans, updating and maintaining web pages, supporting user statistics and reporting data, and other duties (according to the Library's needs and the successful candidate's interests).

Support patrons in using library resources and answer inquiries in a timely and friendly manner.

These inquiries are mostly ready-reference questions, but for most of the students, this is the first point of contact with a Canadian academic library; therefore, handling these interactions with the utmost professionalism and care is paramount.

Library Assistants also provide circulation services and help manage the Library's small print collection, including course reserve materials and library equipment.

Special projects :

under the supervision of one of the Librarians, the Library Assistant will work to enhance the library collection (special focus on cataloging and maintaining resources), support institutional repository metadata development and ingestions, and contribute to library programs and events.

The successful candidate may also select other projects or areas of growth based on their own areas of interest.

In addition, the library assistant will play an essential role in ensuring that the day-to-day operations in the library are running smoothly.

Education and Experience:
A diploma from a 2-year Library Technician program is required; academic library experience is preferred.
Experience working with international students.
Make sure to indicate in your cover letter that you can fulfill these two conditions.
