  • Lead creative public relations campaigns that showcase our library's value to the community
  • Represent the library at community festivals, school events, and neighborhood gatherings
  • Design eye-catching materials that tell our story through graphics, photography, and compelling copy
  • Build our digital presence through strategic social media management and content creation
  • Forge partnerships with local businesses, schools, community organizations, and diverse population groups
  • Analyze community needs through data collection and direct engagement to shape future programming
  • Collaborate with staff to ensure outreach efforts align with library resources and capabilities

What Success Looks Like

  • New faces becoming regular library patrons
  • Increased participation in programs across different demographic groups
  • Strengthened relationships with community organizations
  • Fresh, innovative approaches to traditional library services

Details

  • Hours: Part-time (up to 20 hours/week) with some evenings and weekends
  • Benefits: Standard holidays, paid vacation and sick time per library personnel manual
  • Compensation: Starting at $27.18/hour (meets NJLA recommended minimums), commensurate with experience

Requirements

  • Bachelor's degree from an accredited institution
  • Passion for community engagement and public service
  • Creative problem-solving skills and initiative

At Dover Free Public Library, you'll work in a diverse, supportive environment where your ideas matter. This role offers the rare opportunity to own projects from concept to execution, see their direct impact on community members' lives, and continually evolve your skills across multiple disciplines.

Ready to transform library outreach in Dover? Submit your cover letter and resume to timothy.domick@dfpl.org by May 7, 2025. In your cover letter, we'd love to hear about a community initiative or creative project you've led that made a difference.
