Central University of Odisha 2026 Recruitment: 2 Library Trainee Vacancies

This role is ideal for recent MLISc graduates holding a first-class academic record who are seeking an entry-level position to gain practical experience in a Central University library. Candidates with strong IT skills and good communication in English and Hindi will find this particularly suitable, especially those who are comfortable with a one-year contractual engagement and six-day work week.

Individuals aspiring for permanent government employment or long-term job security should not apply, as this is a strictly one-year contractual, temporary position with no rights to absorption. Candidates who do not meet the essential qualification of a first-class MLISc or are above 28 years of age will also be deemed unsuitable.

Working as a Library Trainee at a Central University offers a valuable opportunity to commence a career in library science, providing exposure to institutional operations and professional development. While the role is contractual and offers limited long-term security within the university, it serves as a strong foundation for future career prospects in the broader library and information science sector.
