The Dungeon & Dragons internship is a workforce development program designed for older teens that requires a weekly commitment over the summer. Interns will train and work collaboratively with a professional Dungeon Master and a teen librarian. Interns assist with weekly D&D campaigns in the Main Library Childrens’ Center, create social media posts, create original campaigns and lead programs at branch libraries.

Interns are required to attend weekly meetings, orientation and trainings that support content creation and development, execution and evaluation of leading a successful Dungeons & Dragons campaign along with learning more about the Library. Time commitment is 15-20 hours each week. Applicants must be enthusiastic about learning new job development skills and supporting the Library’s Mission Statement.
