Pros

No late fees Usually friendly staff Pay is decent (average)

Cons

Major disconnect between branches Major disconnect between branch staff and upper management Not a priority to promote internally anymore Few opportunities to really move up unless you are a loud, active person in the organization who has big ideas and is very loud about them Management has lofty ideas about how to be the best library system in the world without much thought to how to implement these ideas and how they will affect staff, etc. Very few benefits for part timers

Pros

I loved working for the Kent District Library Wyoming Branch. I will miss all of my awesome talented co-workers, and the resources that KDL has for its employees. It was a great organization to work for and would recommend it to anyone interested in working in a fast-paced library system.

Cons

You have to like working in a large fast paced system. This wasn't a con for me, but can be for some.
