(primarily children from birth to age 17 and their caregivers) in the use of the library, assisting with special
events and activities, and promoting library materials.

20 hours/week, including day and evening hours and will be determined by the intern and supervisor. Hours may be

other college students if the work is applicable to their field of study. Please see the attached Job Description for a
