Example Cover Letter: Librarian – Higher Ed. Position

Dear Hiring Manager,

I am writing to apply for the Librarian – Higher Ed. position at your organization. As an experienced librarian with a strong background in library science, research and customer service, I believe that I bring the qualifications and experience you are looking for.

I have worked in the library field for the past five years, where I have cultivated a comprehensive knowledge of library operations and research processes. During my time as a librarian at ABC College Library, I successfully implemented new policies to improve efficiencies and customer service. Additionally, I managed all aspects of day-to-day library services including acquisitions, cataloging, and circulation.

I have also contributed to a number of relevant research projects. My research focuses on the development of library services for non-traditional learners in higher education settings. I am currently working on an article that explores how libraries can better serve this population through targeted outreach strategies and innovative programmatic initiatives.

My experience combined with my passion for the library and higher education makes me an ideal candidate for the Librarian – Higher Ed. position at your organization. I look forward to sharing more details with you and hope that you will consider me for this role.

Thank you for your time and consideration,

Sincerely,

Your Name
