  • Arranging saleable books in different categories such as travel, cookery and biographies
  • Helping maintain a continuous supply of fresh books to the shelves

What skills do I need?

  • An enthusiasm for books
  • A knowledge of the value of books would be really helpful, as would previous experience in a library or book shop
  • The ability to work as part of a team
