Reader Development and Stock Librarian

Reader Development and Stock Librarian

Camden's Libraries are connecting with their residents and developing a very local approach creating neighbourhood spaces where residents can spend time, deliver or attend a creative event, read or listen to a book, access digital and employability support, study or develop their business idea.

As our Development Librarian: Reader Development and stock you will develop and deliver library services to diverse communities in Camden. You will be solution focused and creative in your approach. You'll be responsible for managing the stock budget, stock across the borough, and library management system, as well as representing the library service at regional and national user groups and forums. The role also involves building partnerships with stakeholders across public and private sectors.

You will support the procurement of library materials, develop and manage the digital offer, including online resources and e-books, and monitor and report on stock performance. You will lead the operation and development of library ICT systems, manage a team of staff, and ensure compliance with relevant legislation. You will be advocating for libraries, books, and reading in the community and contribute to the promotion of the library collections and services.
