Pros

This is one of the best libraries in the area. Many patrons visit from all other towns for the library's resources. The environment is great and the people are very nice. There are many events and organized programs for the public so it is quite a busy place most of the time. The reference desk is very helpful and is one of the strongest aspects of the library, as well as the audio visual department, and children's section. The library gets a great deal of use from patrons of all ages so one is able to aid everyone from small children to much more senior patrons.

Cons

No experience in other libraries or other non profit organizations so it is difficult to compare any pluses versus minuses in this regard. However, the library maintains a part-time status for most of its employees and it is difficult to achieve a full-time position which gives benefits. Part-time has limited hours and lowers incentive.

Pros

Manager of the cafe is nice, flexible with scheduling and listens to employees. Job is not difficult and there is a lot of independence for a food industry job to structure your own day. As long as you get the work done you can do it however works best for you.

Cons

No job growth, cafe employees strictly limited to 19 hours a week. No insurance or benefits. It's a part-time job a little above minimum-wage, what you see is what you get.
