**About the company**

Sue Hill Recruitment are presently recruiting for a Part Time Collections Management Assistant for our Charity client in London, for a 6 Month contract.

The library is a major specialist academic library in philosophy, theology and allied disciplines. It is an affiliate library of the University of London and is based in the heart of London. The reading room contains circa. 8,000 books and the latest issues of circa 200 live journal subscriptions. The library is members-only, but open to students, researchers, teachers and students.

The Temporary Collection Management Assistant will work on collection projects and help with the day-to-day staffing of the library’s Issue/Return desk, as well as processing of books. This position would be suitable for someone with good eye for detail, and who might be new to library work.

- Dealing with library users and staffing the Library Issue desk (issuing and returning books) for some of the time.
- Labelling newly catalogued books.
- Shelving and moving books.

The client might start a 2ndproject during this contract which will probably necessitate for the Collection Management Assistant to travel with the Librarian and/or Assistant Librarian to the Offsite Store in Egham (Surrey).

- A good eye for detail and working accurately.
