If you\u2019re a busy bee during the school year who metamorphoses into a worker bee on occasion, ideally you should find a gig that will not only line your pockets, but will enhance your academic life. UB students with a work-study award as part of their financial aid package should consider applying to Langsdale Library. We have openings in our Circulation and Access Services departments, and we\u2019re recruiting now for fall semester. <\/p>\n

The best thing about working at Langsdale, according to work-study students past and present, is that it\u2019s a fun place to be, and it\u2019s a job that\u2019s conducive to learning. Lisa Ferguson (\u201913) says that being able to interact with a diverse range of people is one of her favorite things about working at the circulation desk. <\/p>\n

\u201cYou get to work with people, and you see how the library works from a patron standpoint and a work standpoint. You interact with patrons, with Langsdale staff, with [Langsale director] Lucy\u2014it really enriches your professionalism,\u201d Lisa explains. \u201cA lot of jobs, you don\u2019t necessarily get to talk to the head of the departments, or the director\u2026 Here, staff is very accessible, to me, to patrons, and everybody else.\u201d <\/p>\n

Both Lisa and former work-study student (and current Langsdale Administrative Assistant) Adam Shutz (’11) are wowed by having near-constant access to DVDs, leisure reading, research materials, magazines and newspapers. <\/p>\n

\u201cI love having every book at my disposal, all day, every day,\u201d Adam enthuses.<\/p>\n

Langsdale Circulation staff will provide on-the-job training, and you\u2019ll learn valuable skills that will help you better navigate the library and access crucial academic resources. Another perk of working at Langsdale is that scheduling is flexible, so you can set times to work that will help you balance your busy life as a student. <\/p>\n

Interested? Please have a cover letter, resume, and a copy your work-study award ready, and submit them through the UB Works<\/a> website. If you have any questions, please contact Circulation Supervisor Tammy Taylor at ttaylor@ubalt.edu<\/a>, . <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
