General Information:

The James Madison University Libraries seeks applicants for an Evening and Weekend Services Coordinator position to join the Music Library team and Access & User Services (AUS) department. Access & User Services (AUS) is a newly reorganized department comprised of three experienced teams - Access & Delivery, Library & Information Services, and the Music Library.

The successful candidate will join a team dedicated to offering high-quality services to JMU and the local community. As a member of the Music Library team, the position will primarily supervise the service desk located in the Music building and will regularly work hours with the Library & Information Services team in different locations.

This position works to maintain a shared standard of service at all service points, as well as respond effectively to diverse user needs. This position also helps support the part-time and student employees in the Music Library. 

This is a full-time, 40 hours per week position with benefits.  

Normal work shifts for this position will align with later operations and closing procedures for our buildings. When classes are in session, a typical schedule would be Monday-Thursday 10:30AM-7:30PM and Fridays 11:30AM-8:30PM. During Final Exams, summer, and intersession periods, work hours will shift earlier or later in alignment with operating hours. Therefore, flexibility with work schedules is necessary to reflect the shifts in operations. Shifts will occur in both the Music Library and other JMU library service locations; routine travel between locations is an expectation. 

 

Duties and Responsibilities:

• Help oversee the provision of front-line library services for a broad group of users. Work service point shifts as a member of the AUS department and participate in cross-training within the department. Ensure that daily workflow reporting is complete and accurate. Ensure safe, appropriate use of public spaces, including implementing safety and policy protocols.
• Maintain an awareness of circulation processes and collections workflows. Support the use of the circulating collections, answer questions, and troubleshoot technology as appropriate.
• Help supervise a team of part-time and student employees during work shifts. Commun
