children's librarian

Kids' reading guide

A children's librarian is a librarian who specializes in services for young readers, typically in a public library setting.

The role involves selecting age-appropriate books, leading story times, and helping children and parents find materials.

The children's librarian recommended some chapter books for my seven-year-old.
