Small community, 100% volunteer-run library, seeking a person to take on the role of the head librarian. Job description:
The head Librarian serves as the operations manager for the library. Duties include generating reports and statistics for the board of directors, maintaining the circulation program and addressing volunteers' questions about the platform, generating barcodes for library cards and circulation items, generating lists of items to weed for the circulation manager, responding to general questions from the volunteers and patrons, and leading strategic planning for the library, facility, and its holdings.
We do have a circulation manager who works closely with the head librarian to maintain the day-to-day aspects of the collection for accuracy.
This is a volunteer position, the same as all other roles in our little library.

About RIVER ROAD-SANTA CLARA LIBRARY BOARD INC
Location:
105 OAKLEIGH LN, EUGENE, OR 97404, US
Mission Statement
We are a 100% volunteer-run , independent library, founded in the River Road neighborhood to bring affordable library services to residents who live outside the city limits.
Description
Volunteering at our library is great for people who enjoy a low key environment, enjoy reading, and like to help people. We were closed through the much of the pandemic and are ready to fully open, but we need more volunteers to enable us to achieve this goal.
The library was established in 2003 as a way to provide affordable library services to residents in the 97404 area of Eugene, most of whom are non-city residents. These folks do not pay into the city tax fund and thus are not eligible for a free city library card. Our library has been open since 2005. We ask for a donation of $20 for a one year membership to the library, but no one is turned away for lack of ability/interest to pay. Our operating expenses are entirely through fundraising and donations. The library is staffed entirely by volunteers. Our collection is created mainly through donations and small grants. We have an active children's program throughout the year and a summer reading program for kids also.
