Student Partners Developing a Library Student Employment Program

Abstract

Our team is committed to enhancing the student employment experience at the University Library through a combination of in-depth research and innovative design. Comprising individuals from diverse academic and professional backgrounds, we aim to understand the unique needs and challenges student employees face. By conducting thorough research and gathering comprehensive feedback, we design programs that address critical aspects such as professional development, job satisfaction, career growth, and a sense of belonging in the workplace. Using data-driven analysis, we strive to improve the efficiency and overall satisfaction of the student employment system. Ultimately, our initiative seeks to create a more supportive and fulfilling work environment, better preparing student employees for both academic success and future career opportunities, helping them thrive within the university and beyond.
