Description

The City of Anaheim Public Library seeks an enthusiastic and dynamic Part Time Library Page Driver. Under direct supervision, the Part Time Library Page Driver drives a library vehicle to deliver circulating materials, supplies, and equipment to City and Library locations; loads and unloads book bins; carries out sorting, processing, and distribution activities; collects, transports, and delivers financial deposits and receipts from/to the Library department or to the Finance Department; makes assessments of vehicle safety and operability; and performs related work as required.

This is a library support position, similar to Library Page, but unique in that the materials support provided is accomplished primarily by driving a library vehicle to deliver materials throughout the library system. Responsibilities include materials processing, sorting, shelving, and transporting library books as well as minor vehicle upkeep. Incumbents assigned to this classification also collect and deliver financial items such as cash deposits and receipts. Incumbents perform most of the duties by themselves, adhering to a specified delivery schedule. Incumbents follow prescribed procedures and guidelines in the organization and preparation of deliveries. Assigned tasks do not include direct patron interaction. Incumbents in this classification primarily perform routine and repetitive tasks and assignments are generally limited in scope. This class is distinguished from the Library Bookmobile Clerk in that the latter operates the library bookmobile, driving to designated areas to offer library circulation and program services, and providing direct customer service to patrons.

Candidates must have completed high school (or obtained the GED) and possess a valid California Driver's License by time of appointment.

Experience operating a large or commercial vehicle and working in a library are desirable.

This is a part time position, typically assigned 10 hours per week, up to a maximum of 15, with no minimum number of hours guaranteed. Scheduled hours will be on Saturdays and/or Sundays.
