Overview Drawing from a highly diverse pool of high school and college students often from under-resourced communities, the New York Public Library’s Page Program has offered young New Yorkers a unique professional work experience that focuses on the joy of reading, community engagement, and public service. Today, the Library employs nearly 300 Library Pages. The Library now seeks to reinvest and refocus the Page Program to become an even greater engine of advancement for young, diverse New Yorkers, ultimately establishing a more robust pipeline into the various library professions as well as in departments that historically have difficulty recruiting and retaining diverse candidates. By increasing coaching, mentorship, and leadership development of our Pages and expanding the number of Page positions in non-public service roles, we can also provide New York City college-bound and existing college students with professional experience, exposure, and support that will further their careers beyond the Library and motivate academic success. This role will be responsible for launching and leading a program that serves to help prepare the next generations of library workers and civic-minded leaders that reflect the City’s demographics and further improve future economic opportunities within the communities we serve.
