Com�arison
The position was compared to the other entry-fevel professiona{ c{assifications, such as
Management Assistant l, Volunteer Coordinator, Human Resources Specialist I, Public
Information Speciafist 1, and Project Manager i. The Management Assistant I and
Volunteer Coordinator are in Grade 5 and the Human Resources Specialist i, Public
Information Speciafist i, and Project Manager I are in Grade 7 of the Professional Standard
Ranges.
The position has more responsibility than a Management Assistant i. A Management
Assistant f assists in pfanning and devefoping departmental programs and projects. The
position in question is responsible for managing all aspects of the Library's volunteer
program under the general supervision of the Technica{ and Support Services Manager.
Some of the duties of the position are comparable to the Fiuman Resources Specialist i
and Pubiic information Specialist 1. The duties that are comparable to the Human
Resources Specialist ( are writing job descriptions, recruitment, interviewing, placement,
orientation and training of volunteers. The duties that are comparable to the Pubiic
Information Specialist I are planning and coordinating specia! events, developing
marketing strategies, coordinating volur�teer services, and providing pubfic information and
promotion. The combined responsibility of managing the Library's volunteer program,
student intemship program, and special projects involving volunteer services, such as City
q�.s��
Store and Skyway Branch set-up, bar coding, Highland move, Centrai Library
reorganization, Internet-Hamlink, Youth Summer Reading Program, and Homebound
deliveries would be also be comparable to the Project Manager i class. All three classes
are in the same pay grsde.
The current Volunteer Coordinator class does not fuliy describe the levei of responsibifity
of the volu�teer cflordinator for the Library. The position is respo�sible for all aspects of
the program inc{uding making sure that alf volunteer services needs, issues are resolved,
and appropriate contacts and effective working relationships are established between the
voluntee�s, Library supervisors, outside agencies, and the community.
QES Evaluation
The evaluation supports compensating the position in Grade 7 of the Professionai
Standard Ranges.
Recommendation
f recommend that a new class entitled Library Volunteer Coordinator be created in Grade
7 of the Professional Standard Ranges.
