Summary

An aspiring Library Assistant III worker who would like to apply for Na'alehu Public Library's part-time position to build the skills necessarily to eventually contribute to the Hawai'i State Library System full-time. I believe my occasional substitute Library Assistant III experience at Na'alehu and Pahala would lead to minimal initial training, established community familiarity, and friendly patron/ staff services.
