Dear Mr Fowler

Vacancies f or Librarians

I am writing to enquire if you have any vacancies for librarians at graduate entry level and

enclose my CV in application.

As you will see from my CV, I have just completed an MA in Library and Information Studies

at City Univers ity, London, and I also hold a BA (Hons) in Politics from Oxford Brooke s

University. I am now keen to combine my knowledge of Politics with a career in librarianship:

your organization has a high reputation as one of the world’s leading specialist subject

libraries and I believe that I could make a real contribution to managing its collections and

prom oting their use .

My MA, which is recognized by the Chartered Institute of Library and Informatio n

Professionals, has equipped me with an in-depth knowledge of modern information services

and I would welcome the opportunity to be involved in the management and development of

your collections of e-journals and other electronic p ublications. I am conscientious,

hardworking, and a good communicator and am particularly interested in enhancing my skills

as a librarian in an institution which encourages very high standards of personal develo pment.

I would be happy to attend for interview at your convenience and would be able to start work

from early October onwards. If you do not have any suitable openings at present, I would be

grateful if you would keep my CV on file should any future vacancies arise.

Yours sincerely

Jenny Harrison
