what others are saying

"I would like to say how very happy we have been with our BiblioTemps hire. We are impressed and amazed! She has been such a wonderful addition to our staff.  Last night we had twenty-eight young adults at the library for an Indian-themed night.  They 'made' mendhi tattoos and mango lassi smoothies. During a Japanese night earlier this summer they made sushi and crafted origami.  What a hit!  We have over 50 teens signed up for four sessions of the Red Cross Babysitting Course.  Our BiblioTemps Young Adult Librarian has had at least two events planned each week for all 10 weeks of SummerTeens and it has been absolutely wonderful."

“The WPI Archives needed an archivist for a short-term project to process our backlog of manuscript and archival materials. BiblioTemps helped us find an archivist who has been fantastic. The Temp's experience and background helped her quickly learn our organizational system. She was processing and cataloging materials the same day she arrived. I can’t say enough good things about her. BiblioTemps saved us a tremendous amount of time and effort finding a professional  who we could count on to get the job done.”
