Library Assistant

2 months ago


London, United Kingdom Church of England Full time
Summary

The purpose of the Library Assistant role is to support the vision and mission of the Library by describing the Library's collections and by helping readers to access them.

About the role and department.

Lambeth Palace Library, founded in 1610, is the historic library and record office of the Archbishop of Canterbury. It is freely open for public use, serving as a research centre specialising in ecclesiastical history, but with far wider-ranging archive, manuscript and printed collections, dating from the 9th century to the present day and encompassing everything from medieval manuscripts and early printed books through to modern archives and digital records. The Library's vision is to collect, preserve and make accessible the memory of the Church of England, so that its cultural and religious history can be explored and enjoyed by all.

You'll be supporting visitors to the Library by welcoming them, answering their enquiries, by ensuring that they get the material they require and by supporting the operation of the reading room.

Your core responsibilities will include:

  • Answering enquiries and advising readers on sources in the Library.
  • Supervising visitors to the Library including researchers, maintenance contractors and tour groups.
  • Cataloguing and classifying a range of printed books, including rare books and more complex modern material.

About you

The Church of England is for everyone and we want to reflect the diversity of the communities we serve across the whole country. Therefore, while of course we welcome all applications from all interested and suitably experienced people, we would particularly welcome applicants from UK Minoritised Ethnicities (UKME)/Global Majority Heritage (GMH) and other under-represented groups.

You will be organised, able to work under pressure and independently. You'll have the ability to deal politely, confidently and efficiently with members of the public with excellent verbal and written skills.

You will also need:

  • Demonstrable commitment to a career in library work
  • Experience of working in a public service environment

For a full person specification, please see the attached job description.

Closing date: 22 September 2024.

Interviews are expected to be held on 4 October 2024.
