Where is this? The Sussex County Library System is a six-branch public library. From our headquarters just outside the town of Branchville, we provide access to resources on literacy, technology, business, education, culture and more to the residents of Sussex County. The library system is in a time of change & growth; we’re looking for great people to lead the way.

A marketing pro who is: excited to take the lead in spreading the word about the Library’s resources and programs; able to design engaging promotional materials—both print & digital; not afraid of social media; detail-oriented, organized, and happiest working in a team environment. Bright, curious, friendly, service-oriented—if you identify with these descriptors, we’re looking for you!

Why should I apply? Not many public libraries in NJ have the resources to maintain a dedicated marketing professional, or the friendly, committed, collaborative staff that are the heart of the Sussex County Library System. If you are interested in joining a library system that can offer plenty of colleagues with whom to collaborate, learn, & grow--all in a welcoming, collegial environment--this could be just the opportunity for you.
