Calling artists, crafters, and upcyclers! We are seeking donations of handcrafted items to sell to benefit the library at our Booktique sale this October (sale dates Saturday 10/11 – Saturday 10/18)!

No matter which craft(s) are dear to your heart, we hope you’ll share the love with us by donating some of your completed projects in support of library operations.

Bring your donations to our service desk any time during open hours from Tuesday 9/2 through Saturday 10/4. We will ask you to provide your contact information and a description, quantity, and suggested price for each item. You can print and complete a form with this information ahead of time, or fill one out at the library.

Questions? Call the library at 503-259-0185, or email Community Engagement Specialist Maggie at maggieh@alohalibrary.org.

Thank you for your support!

The fine print:

• All items should be handcrafted or upcycled, and appropriate to display at a family-friendly event. No homemade foods, sorry!
• Suggested prices are suggestions only and the library may choose to set other prices at its discretion.
• Items that remain unsold at the end of the Booktique will be retained by the library and may be sold at future events or otherwise utilized to benefit the library.
• ALL sale proceeds – 100%! – will benefit library services in our community.

Circulation Assistant

$15.95-16.10/hour
16 hours per week (Mondays and Tuesdays, 9:45am-6:15pm)
Ages 18+ 

Applications will be reviewed on a rolling basis beginning Thursday, June 5, 2025, until the position is filled. Early applications are encouraged.

The Aloha Community Library is a dynamic nonprofit public library that provides a wide range of services. We are seeking a team-oriented library enthusiast to serve as a part-time Circulation Assistant.

Our ideal candidate is positive, practices proactive customer service, is passionate about providing equitable library services to everyone, and is eager to learn and innovate. Library experience is a plus but not required. Circulation Assistants spend most shifts working directly with patrons, checking materials in and out, and keeping the library tidy and safe. This position requires excellent organizational and communication skills, flexibility, the ability to work independently, and the enjoyment of working with a diverse group of people. Additional hours may be offered occasionally when other staff take time off.

The Aloha Community Library Association is committed to building an inclusive, anti-racist organization. Everyone interested in serving our community is encouraged to apply. No library experience? That’s ok! If you have customer service experience, a knack for explaining technology skills clearly and patiently, or other skills you believe make you a strong candidate, please apply!

Employment announcement, position description, and application are available at the library and online here.

To be considered, please submit a cover letter, application, and resume (including references) to Terri Palmer, Library Director.
