[LM_NET] TARGET: Tips for Children's Librarian?

[Amanda Credaro <abcredaro@OZEMAIL.COM.AU>]

Dear all,

A colleague has an interview for a position at a public library as a
Children’s Librarian.  She has only ever worked in school libraries,
although has used public libraries and their children’s services with her
own kids.  If there is anyone with public library experience (or maybe even
a current Children’s Librarian?), are there any tips, hints or other
information of which she should be aware?

What sort of questions are likely at the interview (and suggested
responses?) that would be different from that typically asked at a school
library interview?

Will post a hit here (but not for Warrior Librarian Weekly).

Many thanks on her behalf,
Amanda Credaro
Teacher Librarian at Large
Sydney, Australia
