Warm welcome to Lidköping – a sustainable and welcoming community!

Fredriksdal School is a school with about 330 students. Fredriksdal School - the school of opportunities. For us, school is an important and meaningful place for both students and staff. We work for a school characterized by positive meetings, enjoyable learning environments, community, and participation. We strengthen the positive and build on what works. We stimulate and motivate all students to achieve as much as possible in their goal fulfillment and to feel hopeful about the future. Digital and formative learning processes are an obvious part of supporting each student's learning.

About the job

The school library should promote the status of literature and interest in education, enlightenment, training, and research, as well as other cultural activities.

We are now looking for a school librarian who wants to make a difference in Lidköping Municipality. We want you to help develop the role of the school library as a pedagogical force in students' learning. As a school librarian with us, you, like all staff, will work to improve student outcomes. In the role of school librarian, you will be responsible for ensuring, together with school management and staff at our school units, that a school library operation is created that promotes students' reading motivation. If this sounds like a mission for you, we look forward to your application!

Job responsibilities

We work to ensure that the school library has a clear pedagogical function whose main task is to collaborate with teachers to strengthen students' linguistic abilities and digital competence, as well as create a school library for all.

You will work to develop students' media and information literacy and digital competence, as well as strengthen students' reading engagement, reading ability, and language and knowledge development. You will promote reading both in collaboration with school staff and independently.

You will be responsible for the school libraries at Fredriksdal School, Lidåker School, and Ösby School, and work to ensure that the library is a learning environment that is socially, pedagogically, and physically accessible. This means, for example, that you will be a natural part of teaching in schools and after-school care. You will advocate for the school library to be an active part of the school's core values and democratic mission. Your job responsibilities will also include media planning and purchasing, circulation, and media management. You are expected to participate in professional development initiatives aimed at developing the school library operations. Together with those responsible for other school libraries, you will build a common network for collegial learning. Your workplace may be at different units. You will be involved in the development and implementation of a school library plan for Lidköping Municipality.

Who are you?

You have a degree in library and information science or another relevant academic degree.

You are creative, inspiring, think constructively, and create good relationships with both students and staff. You are driven by working closely with students and demonstrate the ability to positively influence children and students.
