[kids-lib] Beaverton City Library - Summer 2010 Internships

[Victoria Campbell]

* Please forward this to any one you think maybe interested.  *

The Beaverton City Library is pleased to announce that their summer internships are now open for applications.

We strive to make our internships teaching internships - allowing observation of service desks, library school exercises and other learning opportunities specifically tailored to the intern's desired career path. Several interns have moved on to become on-call or regular staff at some point after their internship ended.

This year we have three new internships in our adult services department, for our Family Resource Fair and at our soon to be open branch library, Murray Scholls.

You will find a short summary of the positions below.
