Librarian

2919 8 Ave NW, Calgary, AB, T2N 1C8 [map]
5 hours / monthly
Ongoing
Our librarians are the heartbeat of the library and play the most important role in our community. As a librarian, you’ll meet like-minded families while promoting sustainable play in our city, on a timeline that works for you. We’d love for you to be part of our story.

Time commitment: 5 hours once per month. We are open in the basement of Parkdale United Church from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Saturdays. 

Key responsibilities: 
Set up: Open the church and set out banners.
Toy checkout and check-in: Use MyTurn lending software to receive reservation requests, prepare orders, and check-in, clean and reshelve items upon return. We have an iPad available for use, but most librarians prefer to use their own laptop. 
Membership assistance: Assist new and existing members with inquiries and selecting toys.
Why should you volunteer for this opportunity?
Complimentary membership: Get free access to our catalogue of over 650 items if your selections aren’t reserved. 
Connection: Be part of a close-knit, fun-loving team that feels like family. 
Contribution: Know that you’re contributing to a greener, happier, and more playful city.
