Description:

Job Duties:
Libraries aim to provide with easy access to information and recreational resources. A library without a librarian is just a collection of books. It is the librarian who brings it all together. In addition to managing the day to day operations of the library, your role as a librarian includes:

  • helping kids to find books of their interest
  • keeping the library looking attractive and tidy
  • promoting the library within the school
  • engaging with kids to provide a range of activities

Helping Kids in the library

  • Many kids just want to browse through the library stock to make their selection.
  • A well-organised and attractively presented collection is important.
  • Books should be arranged tidily and in the correct order to facilitate easy access.
  • Be ready to suggest 'what to read next', 'what to do next', 'how to get involved'.

Shelf order

  • There are conventions in library shelf order which should be adopted in order to make it as easy as possible to locate books.
  • To maintain appropriate order, for different categories of stock
  • The information required about each book for shelving to be maintained
  • Books should be evenly spaced and each shelf should be no more than 3/4 full.

Shelf displays:

  • Although the above methods of arranging the books should be followed for most of the library stock, a kid will often be attracted to a particularly interesting book displayed face out, so that the title and jacket design catches the eye.
  • In choosing books to display in this way, take into account the visual appeal of the book and only display books in good condition. Book easels are useful for the face out display of books.

Assisting kids who come in the library:

  • Helping kids means far more than keeping books in order. It also means presenting a helpful and welcoming face to library so that they feel free to ask for help.
  • Sometimes you will help them find what they are looking for in your own library.
  • By listening to your kids, by knowing their interests, by talking to them about what they are really looking for, will you be able to help.

Qualification: B.Lib or M. Lib.

Key Skills:

  • Good library management skill
  • Patience and good communication skills
  • Good problem solving and organizing skills


Interested and Eligible candidates may apply on or before 25th March 2020.

About Us

Cygnet Day School has one of the most distinguished histories of any school in Bongaon subdivision. Founded in 2005 this school has achieved an enviable reputation in the field of academics as well as extra-curricular activities in Bongaon Subdivision. It is without doubt one of the top schools here. Time passes on. Society advances. Revolutionary scientific progress has drastically changed the root of civilisation- and the process is going on. But the people living far away from the capital city can’t reach the pace of progress due to lack of appropriate educational facilities. This is not due to their poor merit and low intelligence level. Rather this backwardness is mainly due to lack of proper educational facilities. A huge number of meritious students, hard working youth can’t be successful in the job oriented interview board mainly because they are unable to speak English. This weakness in speaking power is leaving them behind the less meritious students. . In this era of Globalization, we can’t ignore the international language English. It will be foolish to give less importance to it. In any branch of Education, you can’t proceed much deeper without the help of English. . Considering all these aspects of real life necessity, Bongaon Education Welfare Trust decided to set up a high Standard English medium school, where except the second language teachers all the teachers are of English medium background. Cygnet Day School- A co-ed English medium School run by Bongaon Educational Trust. The school follows ICSE curriculum and is affiliated to the CISCE (New Delhi). The school started functioning from April 2005 (from Nursery to class v) with a highly qualified group of the teaching staff headed by an experienced principal. Pupils are trained for the Indian Certificate of Secondary Education (ICSE) Examinations and Indian School Certificate (ISC) Examinations. Throughout its period of existence of about seven years it has always maintained a standard of un-impea
