Employment at the Library

Personnel actions at The Community Library are governed by Schoharie County Civil Service rules. The majority of employment positions at the library are Competitive Classifications, where Civil Service must determine merit and fitness by competitive examination. Most exams are given as vacancies occur. Vacancies at the library will be listed on this page, though you must follow in the procedures detailed in any vacancy notices including submitting your Civil Service application to the library. Provisional appointments will be contingent upon successful completion of a civil service examination and becoming reachable on the resulting list of eligible candidates.

Appointments to fill vacancies may be provisional, pending the outcome of Civil Service examinations. Selected candidates that are not currently listed with Civil Service for given positions are required to pass exams in order to retain their appointment. Exams are announced here.

We often have provisional openings for part-time Library Clerks. Interested applicants please send your employment application to: The Community Library, 110 Union St, Cobleskill, NY 12043
