Part-Time · $20/hour · Flexible Schedule 

The Mahomet Public Library is seeking a motivated, detail-driven individual to help bring an exciting new project to life: the nurturing and managing of a comprehensive community website for the residents of Mahomet, a growing midsized town in Central Illinois. EverythingMahomet.com was launched in January of 2026 and is already actively informing the community.

• Writing 2–3 engaging news-style articles per week covering local events and topics of interest 

We’re looking for someone who is:

✔ A self-starter who thrives with minimal supervision 
✔ An excellent writer and researcher, willing to collaborate on style and content 
✔ Tech-savvy and comfortable learning new tools 
✔ Comfortable reaching out to community members in-person, over the phone, and online.
