Assistant Librarian

About This Job

The Punjab Information Technology Board (PITB) has announced a contract-basis vacancy for the post of Assistant Librarian, listed on the Punjab Job Portal, the Government of Punjab's official online job platform. The position is based in Lahore and falls under the Library Services job category, indicating the role supports management of library resources, records or digital archiving initiatives associated with PITB. One vacancy is available under this advertisement, and applications must be submitted online only through the specific job link. The closing date for this post is 19 August 2026.

The eligibility requirement for this post is a Masters or Bachelors (Hons) degree of 16 years of education specifically in Library Science or Library and Information Sciences. A minimum of 1 year of relevant experience is required. The advertised age range is 23 to 45 years, and the post is open to both male and female candidates, subject to the Punjab domicile requirement referenced in the portal's Dastak service section. No separate age relaxation clause is mentioned in the source listing, so applicants should ensure they fall within the stated age bracket at the time of applying.

Eligible candidates should apply online through the Assistant Librarian listing on the Punjab Job Portal before the 19 August 2026 closing date. The source page does not mention any application processing fee for this post, and it also does not specify a base salary or pay scale, consistent with the general PITB portal listing format that omits pay figures. Applicants are advised to prepare scanned copies of their degree certificates, transcripts, CNIC and any relevant library or archival experience documentation, and to complete the online application form thoroughly before the deadline. As with other PITB contract postings, further details regarding any written test, interview schedule or contract renewal terms for the Assistant Librarian position are not specified on the source listing and would presumably be communicated to shortlisted candidates directly. Given that this is a contract-basis engagement rather than a regular civil service post, candidates should not assume any automatic conversion to permanent employment, as the advertisement does not address this question for the Assistant Librarian vacancy. PITB serves as the Government of Punjab's lead information technology authority, and this Assistant Librarian vacancy forms part of its ongoing effort to strengthen technical and programme capacity across the organization.
