HomeMy WebLinkAboutMINUTES - 09102013 - C.39RECOMMENDATION(S):
ADOPT Position Adjustment Resolution No. 21350 to cancel one (1) full-time Clerk-Specialist Level (JWXD)
(represented) vacant position No.14626 and add one (1) part-time 32/40 Library Assistant-Advanced Level (3KTB)
(represented) position at salary plan and grade QXX 1234 (3,516 - 4,491) in the Library Department.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Upon approval, this action will result in an annual cost savings of approximately $7,828.56 in the Library Fund. No
fiscal impart to the County General Fund.
BACKGROUND:
The Clerk-Specialist position is currently responsible for tasks related to New Employee Training and coordination
of Library Volunteers. The Library evaluated current and future staffing needs and determined that the
Clerk-Specialist position should be canceled and that a Library Assistant-Advanced Level position should be added to
operate more independently and take advantage of subject matter knowledge that would be inherent in a candidate of
that classification. Also assigned to this position will be the Administration of the Wilruss Children’s Library Trust, a
trust that was bequeathed to the Contra Costa County Library and is dedicated to bringing Library services to children
from 0-5 years old.
CONSEQUENCE OF NEGATIVE ACTION:
If the addition of this position is not approved, the Library will not have an employee in a classification that is best
suited to the knowledge and responsibilities of the position that coordinates the Library Volunteers Program and
administers the Wilruss Children’s Library Trust.
