The main focus of the libraries is to support the teaching, learning, and multiple literacies of students by providing innovative and relevant programs, library services and a safe and welcoming environment. These goals centre around the four Strategic Pillars which underpin the College’s Strategic vision: Academic, Social, Emotional and Digital Intelligence.
The successful applicant will have a strong understanding of library services and how these best serve a school community to enrich learning, research, and wellbeing. The Library Technician is responsible for customer service to support the Pymble community in the delivery of library services and resources, and for the efficient and timely delivery of technical and digital aspects of library operations.
