Library Technician
Join Cleveland Clinic’s Main Campus where research and surgery are advanced, technology is leading-edge, patient care is world-class, and caregivers are family. Cleveland Clinic is recognized as one of the top hospitals in the nation. At Cleveland Clinic, you will work alongside passionate and dedicated caregivers, receive endless support and appreciation and build a rewarding career with one of the most respected healthcare organizations in the world.
The Cleveland Clinic Floyd D. Loop Alumni Library serves Main Campus and Family Health Centers and shares physical collections with our other regional libraries at Fairview, Hillcrest, and South Pointe Hospitals. Each library location is part of a different Cleveland community. Through our support of patient care, research, and education, we support those communities by continuing Cleveland Clinic’s greater mission of “caring for life, researching for health, educating those who serve.” As a Library Technician, you will provide medical articles to caregivers to help them treat patients or conduct research on new treatments and therapies.
