Come help “make” the future of library services at the Olathe Public Library! The library, located just south of Kansas City, is currently building a new Indian Creek Library scheduled for completion in late 2019. The facility has an exciting, progressive design and will give special prominence to spaces and programs that showcase the library’s new role as a place of creation, open to all.
The library has three Makerspaces under construction:
- The Lab (Makerspace)
- The Studio (Audio/Video Recording and Production)
- The Zone (Teen Gaming)
The library is seeking a dynamic, energetic and knowledgeable leader for its Maker program. This person will engage directly and manage other part-time staff to ensure the library’s Maker vision remains fresh and the programming is adaptable to current and emerging needs and interests.
The successful candidate will have a passion for helping others (including community members and library staff) gain skills, accomplishments and pride through “Make” activities; possess a spirit of curiosity and infectious enthusiasm; have excellent organizational and management skills; understand and use the principles of “design thinking” and bring a sense of possibility to work each day!
