Summer Intern Position at the Ellicottville Memorial Library
ELLICOTTVILLE - The Ellicottville Memorial Library is pleased to announce the generous donation of funds from the Rotary Club of Ellicottville Foundation for Youth to hire a local student as a summer intern to help with the children’s Summer Reading Program. “We are thrilled because this additional person will give us the ability to provide more programs and activities to the 100+ children that sign up each summer for our Summer Reading Program,” said Laura Flanagan, Library Director.
The theme for this year’s Summer Reading Program is “Tails & Tales” so library staff will concentrate on animals and their stories. “This program will help motivate children to read and develop positive attitudes about reading and books,” explained Flanagan. “It will also help children maintain their reading skills over summer vacation and encourage regular use of the library. We are already gearing up to provide programs and events focusing on group games, physical challenges, art projects, science and more.”
Any student interested in applying for this position should stop by the Ellicottville Memorial Library or call 716-699-2842 for information. The intern must be currently enrolled in college or planning on attending college this fall; preference will be given to Ellicottville Central School graduates.
This position will run from June 21st through August 13th. (These dates can be adjusted by one week if necessary to accommodate high school seniors.) The pay rate is 30 hours per week at $12.50 per hour. Please submit an application and resume by June 5th.
