Work is performed in an office/retail environment. Individuals may need to sit
or stand for extended periods. Manual dexterity to manipulate library materials
is required. The ability to communicate orally and in writing effectively is
necessary. Job duties include reaching above shoulder heights, below the
waist or lifting as required to file documents or store materials throughout
the workday. The ability to do repetitive tasks with speed and accuracy is
needed. Employees may need to carry, push, pull, or lift up to 30 pounds while
using proper lifting techniques. Pushing and pulling fully loaded (50-100
pounds) book carts will be commonplace. The ability to work under pressure,
coordinating multiple responsibilities simultaneously, and meet firm deadlines
will be expected.</span></p>
