Pros

Staff at all levels love libraries and are passionate about helping people. Great colleagues who are creative about approaching budget challenges. Management shares monthly department reports with all staff. Beautiful building, patio cafe, bookstore in basement. Get to work surrounded by great books and movies!

Cons

Property tax revenues have been decreasing, so the library's budget has also been decreasing or staying flat—for years now. With every staff member who leaves and isn't replaced, more work falls to those who are left. Very few career paths available in organization.

Pros

Experience okay. Most of the staff is great.

Cons

Management/supervisory staff is elitist. Clickish. Weird dress code oversight (reinforcement of gender stereotypes). Lower tier staff is underpaid for job qualifications and expectations.
