Can anyone explain to me why the Toronto Public Library advertises these amazing jobs that turn out - on closer inspection - to be for 14 hours a week. How many 14 hour a week jobs can one librarian hold down? I worked in Toronto for one year after graduating with my MLS. I held down 4 part-time jobs and one volunteer position in an elementary school library. I was happy to trade them all for just one 35 hour a week job here in NYC.
