Children's Librarian Fellow
https://www.darienlibrary.org/mcgrawfellowship
Darien Library seeks a new Children's Librarian for an extraordinary opportunity. Harold McGraw was an active supporter of Darien Library with a personal commitment to education and a belief in the important role a child's library experiences play in the beginning of life-long literacy. The McGraw family has funded the formation of a Children's Librarian Fellowship at Darien Library to honor his memory, through a two-year full-salaried position for a recent Master in Library Science graduate who possesses:
- Exemplary scholarship
- A passion for working with children and for the development of literacy
- Significant leadership promise
- Strong personal qualities
- A penchant for technology
The Fellowship will be open to LIS graduates from an accredited Library School in the United States or Canada who will have received his or her diploma between September 1, 2017 and September 1, 2018.
Applications will be due February 15, 2018. For more information on past fellows and how to apply, please visit the Fellowship Page.
