About this role
Status: Part-Time| Closing Date: August 7th, 2026
Driver-Outreach Assistant
As a Driver-Outreach Assistant for the Uintah County Library, this position blends hands-on fleet management with direct community engagement to deliver vital services across Uintah and Daggett counties. Reporting to the Assistant Director, the role is primarily responsible for safely operating mobile vehicles, including the Little Library Express and a future full-scale bookmobile, while managing daily vehicle safety inspections, maintenance logs, and route scheduling across rural and mountain roads. On the front lines of community outreach, the Assistant executes full ILS circulation workflows, issues new library cards, processes fines, and provides technical support for on-vehicle Wi-Fi and digital media. Additionally, the position collaborates closely with Librarians to curate mobile collections, lead impromptu children's activities at stop locations, track daily usage statistics, and ensure full compliance with Utah Code regarding patron privacy.
Applicants must possess a high school diploma or equivalent, combined with at least one year of experience in a public library, school library, bookstore, or comparable public-facing customer service role; an equivalent combination of education and experience will also be considered. Candidates must be available for a flexible schedule that includes some evening and weekend work. Highly desirable qualifications include an Associate’s degree or college coursework, bilingual proficiency in English and Spanish, localized knowledge of the Uintah Basin communities, and prior experience in mobile outreach operations or youth literacy activities like children's story times. Because this role requires driving county vehicles and involves regular interaction with minors, candidates must hold a valid Utah Driver’s License with an insurable driving history, verified by a current Motor Vehicle Record, and successfully clear a pre-employment criminal background check.
This part-time position offers an hourly wage of $17.00 along with some fantastic perks! You'll have access to our county wellness center, which includes gym equipment, and you can participate in engaging employee events and valuable workshops. While traditional benefits aren't provided, you'll be joining an amazing team dedicated to the literacy of our community.
