Children’s Services Internships

Join our staff of innovative, fearless librarians in our quest to push the envelope in children’s services and programming. If you are up for excitement and want an internship that will be tailored to your skill – or more importantly - dream set, we nurture a creative and supportive environment to allow you to hone your talents in all areas of children’s librarianship. Have you ever yearned to: embalm a chicken, coordinate a puppet wedding, host an overnight teddy bear sleep-over, or teach Windows Movie Maker with a laptop mobile classroom? If so, please send your application and begin a journey of adventure – just remember: this is NOT your grandmother’s library.
