Job posting: Camden Public Library
Via the Maine Libraries Discussion list (MELIBS), I see there’s an opening for a Children’s Librarian at the Camden Public Library. From the email:
This full-time position is critical to fulfilling the library’s mission of
excellent service to the children of the communities we serve. Duties
include: designing, implementing and evaluating library services for
children and young adults, planning and conducting children’s and YA
programs, and development of the children’s and young adult materials
collections.This successful candidate will possess a broad knowledge of children’s
literature and children’s programming. A college degree is required and
library experience is preferred.
The CPL is one of the loveliest libraries I’ve visited, and has an absolutely stunning view of Camden Harbor. I don’t know a lot about the workings of the library, but as a midcoast native, I heartily recommend the area and the communities - there’s a lot of neat stuff going on - check out the Camden-Rockport-Lincolnville chamber of commerce site as well as the one for Rockland-Thomaston.
