The West Virginia Library Association is excited to announce the launch of our brand‑new WVLA Job Board, a centralized space where libraries, archives, and information organizations across the state can share open positions — and where job seekers can easily find their next opportunity.
For years, our members have asked for a simpler, more consistent way to post and discover library jobs. Today, we’re thrilled to deliver a tool that does exactly that.
What You’ll Find on the WVLA Job Board
Our new job board is designed to be:
✔ Easy to browse
Search by posting date, job type, or location.
✔ Open to all libraries and institutions
You do not need to be a WVLA member to post a job.
✔ Free to use
There is no cost to post or view job listings.
✔ Updated continuously
New opportunities can be added at any time, ensuring the board stays current and useful.

- Increase visibility for open positions
- Connect qualified candidates with libraries statewide

- Support hiring equity and transparency
Whether you’re hiring a director, a children’s librarian, a cataloger, or a part‑time assistant, the WVLA Job Board gives your posting a statewide audience.
