We offer internship opportunities for library school students and others.

Student Employment

The Library accepts applications for student assistant positions ONLY during the library application period for each semester/term.

The library application period starts on the same day SDSU registration begins, and ends on the last day of the add/drop period. Please refer to the SDSU academic calendar for the appropriate dates.

Please apply in person at the library administration office, LA-2250, Monday to Friday, from 8:00 am to 4:30 pm.

Tips and information:

  • Submitting an application does not guarantee a position (please understand that openings are scarce and the competition is intense).
  • Please pay close attention to the instructions in the application; every question needs to be answered.
  • Your probability for being hired increases with your schedule availability, and with the ability to write about yourself (applications with blanks normally go unnoticed). Attaching a resume is not required, but it isn't a bad idea.
  • Keeping the information on your application up-to-date provides you with the best opportunity to obtain a position in the library. If you have a change of address, phone number, or class schedule, please go to LA 2250 and ask to revise your application.
  • Applications are kept on file for one semester only. If you are hired outside the library, please let us know so we can remove your application from our files.
  • IMPORTANT: Emailing or contacting library personnel (other than the library administration front office) to seek a job is discouraged. Please refrain from doing so. Students who contact library staff directly about jobs are NOT considered good candidates.
