Paging at Red Deer Public Library
Pages return books and audio-visual materials to the shelves once they've been returned. With 3/4 million items coming back from loans each year, that's a big job.
Most pages are high school or college students looking for an after-school and weekend job. For more information on working at Red Deer Public Library, please contact Trish Klein at 755-1136 (pklein [at] rdpl.org,), Laural Grimes at 342-9121 (lgrimes [at] rdpl.org) or talk to someone at the Circulation Desk of the Downtown Branch. Once you've worked as a page for one year, you're eligible for a $500 Dickson Bursary - more information here.
Fun Fact: Bill Gates started his career as a Library Page in the Seattle Public Library system. Another famous page: the great comedian Fred Allen began as a page in the Boston Public Library. Rich and funny are your two choices.
