Students are being invited to appear on camera and present informational videos for the library this August.
Presenters will be paid £50 for a day’s work and £25 for half a day.
Doing this every day during term time for three years would net the serial presenter £22,500. That’s £4,500 less than the student would blow on the average TFTV undergraduate degree.
Wannabe library TV stars will first and foremost need to be confident in front of a camera, as well as be experienced at presenting information and clearly spoken.
The job description doesn’t mention anything about having to have a passion for the library though.
Set to film in August, the videos will be about the Library, IT Services and Borthwick Institute for Archives.
