[Michlib-l] NEW! Full-time Youth Services Librarian Posting for Hartland's Cromaine Library

[Ceci Marlow]

*Cromaine Is the Cultural Center of Hartland—our full-time Youth Services
Librarian will be a vital contributor *

A beautiful new addition has been completed, under budget, and we finally
have spaces for our staff to continue to create new and innovate
traditional library services and collections. As the Cultural Center of
Hartland, Hartland’s Cromaine is expected by its community to offer music
and art, as well as all of the science, engineering and technology
engagement possible for all ages. *We have a full-time Youth Services
Librarian position *available to join a staff responsible for collection
and programming for youth and teens. *This position is an addition to our
team of innovative experts. *  Our community thrives on popular materials
and community-based programming. If you have some special interests and
skills, we’ll find a way for  you to share those with our community, too!
In 2017, Hartland’s Cromaine celebrated its 90th year of service with a big
splash, including the grand opening of the new space. *A highly
collaborative library-wide team will support you as we implement the
newly-created Strategic Plan  and explore how best to meet our community’s
diverse interests with quality collections and services. *

            Cromaine District Library is located near the intersection of
M-59 and US-23—easy to get to from Detroit, Lansing, Ann Arbor, and Flint.
Hartland’s Cromaine (built in 1927, expanded in 1980, and again in  2017)
has the elegant Community Room, a large physical collection and large
digital collection, plus two new smaller meeting rooms, a Youth Program
Room, and three new study rooms as a result of the little addition to this
building. *We also have a serious commitment to outreach, participating in
many events and exhibits beyond our walls* as well as finding new ways to
be active outside this building in a busy community.

            Cromaine wins grants, including several National Endowment for
the Arts’ The Big Read. Grants for technology in Youth, local business
sponsorships for an expanded summer concert series, exhibits from the
Smithsonian and to be a pilot for a national grant program—we are a place
to connect to culture, music, technology, makers, as well as reading in
every format. *Many of the grants support a very full event calendar*
(check it out at WWW.CROMAINE.ORG).   We are an OverDrive (TLN’s Download
Destination) plus Advantage, hoopla, and Zinio library. We welcome new
technologies and ways to improve collections and services, taking seriously
every patron request.

            *We pay MLS librarians from $19.50 to $20.50 per hour to start*;
40 hours per week with half-hour paid lunch for each day over 6 hours. The
postion requires some evenings and weekends with Sundays at time and
one-half. MLA membership and national conference attendance (in rotation)
paid. Full-time positions at Cromaine have paid vacation, sick, and
