Full Job Description
Do you have a desire for working with people, an interest in supporting the needs of local communities, and a passion for what library services deliver, including the promotion of reading, learning, wellbeing, and digital inclusion?, As a Community Library Support Officer, you will be working alongside a team of dedicated trustees and committed volunteers across two community libraries, supporting the volunteers in the delivery of high-quality library and information services, while meeting North Yorkshire Council priorities. You will support the delivery of activities and events, promote library services, undertake stock management and provide excellent customer service, assisting in resolving any issues as they arise., This post is split across two community libraries as follows: 15 hours per week at Sherburn and Villages Community Library and 7 hours per week at Tadcaster Community Library working on a rota basis Monday - Saturday, but some flexibility may be required depending on Service needs. There may be the opportunity for occasional additional work in other locations across the Area library team.
You will be passionate about books and reading, have excellent communication skills, and the ability to work with volunteers, trustees and a range of community organisations. You will also have the ability to deliver a customer-focussed service, have literacy & numeracy qualifications equivalent to at least Level 2 and be confident in the use of IT.
From the 1^st April 2023 the eight district, borough and county councils in North Yorkshire merge to form the new Council, serving 611,000 residents.
The County of North Yorkshire is the largest County in England and Wales. Within the county are 598 square miles of the Yorkshire Dales National Park, and 530 square miles of the North York Moors National Park. The county is included in the Yorkshire and Humberside Region.
Whilst the economy of the County has traditionally been dependent on agriculture and tourism, there is a fast growing high technology base and this, together with other forms of light manufacturing industry, is of increasing importance. The Council has an active policy of economic development and the predominantly rural character of the County is highly attractive to high technology businesses as well as the traditional industries of farming, food production and tourism. The County contains several centres of great historic interest, market towns that invite light industrial development, the modern coalfield area in the South, scenic, lightly populated upland areas and the extensive lowland area in the Vale of York.
With a brand new Council, newly elected members, the prospect of a new combined authority as well as its' first ever mayor, North Yorkshire is on the cusp of a new dawn. The county already has firm foundations - a strong culture and identity which is rich in heritage; thriving communities where the people and places are resilient and innovative; beautiful scenery with stunning landscapes, quaint villages, market and coastal towns; plus the vibrant cities of York and Leeds just on the doorstep. This amazing county combines the best of the traditional and the modern, and is widely regarded as one of the best places to live in the UK. North Yorkshire is a great place to live, work and do business.
