School Librarian in Älta Principal Area

Do you have a great interest in fostering a love for reading and enhancing students' language development? Through your work, you inspire and motivate students to become skilled, curious, and critical readers.

Here in the Älta principal area, you will play a significant role in the development of school libraries, with ample opportunity to shape operations and drive reading promotion initiatives.

Your Mission

In your role as a school librarian in the Älta principal area, you will be responsible for our three school libraries and staff them on different days of the week. With us, you have a central function in promoting a love for reading and language development among students of all ages. You shape our school libraries and create a structured, stimulating, and inviting environment that encourages students to borrow and explore literature. You are responsible for the schools' library system, which is currently Cicero, and relevant purchases. You also support educators in our preschools in developing reading strategies and read-aloud practices.

You maintain good awareness of the external environment and assist with information searches for all our visitors. You are involved in driving our reading project “Stavan läs” and plan activities such as book discussions. You also have a good understanding of social media and digital systems, enabling you to effectively communicate information about the library's projects and activities.

Your Experience

For this position, you are required to have:

  • a bachelor's or master's degree in library and information science, or an equivalent degree deemed relevant by the employer
  • good ability to express yourself in Swedish and English, both orally and in writing
  • good digital competence and system management.

It is advantageous if you also have:

  • experience working in libraries or similar environments.
  • training in children's culture.

We place great emphasis on personal suitability.

Is This You?

To thrive in this role, we see that you are service-oriented and create a welcoming atmosphere in the libraries for all our visitors. You are structured and have the ability to organize and maintain order in the library's resources. With your communicative skills, you build good relationships with colleagues, guardians, and students. Since you have the ultimate responsibility for the libraries, you are self-sufficient and confident in your role. Furthermore, you are proactive and drive projects, develop routines, and improve working methods.

We Offer

The Älta principal area consists of three primary schools and six preschools. We have a strong focus on equity, quality, and improvement work. We actively work to create an equitable education for all our children and students and strive to be a clear organization with clear routines where it is easy to do the right thing.

Älta is a growing area, and our principal area is expanding accordingly. Sigfridsborg School and Stavsborg School are newly built, and we will soon open Älta Resource School. We have close cooperation between preschools and schools, both in daily operations and at the management level.

As a librarian, you will be part of a competent and helpful team that supports you in fulfilling your role effectively. Since this is a newly established position, there are great opportunities to influence its design together with the school management.

As an employee of Nacka Municipality, you will have access to benefits such as a wellness allowance of 3,000 SEK per year, the purchase of an SL card via net salary deduction, and a versatile internal support function. In Nacka, you have the opportunity to work in a municipality that aims to be the best in Sweden at being a municipality, with openness and diversity as its vision and a fundamental value of trusting people's knowledge, will, and ability.
