I never realised how many associated jobs are available in Libraries. People, including me think that it’s all about the Front Desk staff and the Librarians. This post really made me to appreciate our libraries even more. Thank you.
It really is pretty impressive. My library system employs over 250 workers but only about half of them can really be considered "front end" access service style staff. There is a ton of work that goes on behind the scene. Our system includes eleven locations spread over a very large geographic area, so even just the logistics of moving around materials requires a lot of workers.
