Libraries Tasmania and YNOT are working together to provide young people aged 15-25 with opportunities to influence library programs, services and spaces.

We are seeking 6 young people to join an online Youth Advisory Group to help shape this work!

As a Youth Advisory Group member, you will:

• Create a youth-friendly statewide survey for young people to share their feedback and ideas on library services
• Help design small group workshops to hear young people’s views
• Shape posters and information for young people, including language, design and content
• Support evaluation and reporting of our youth participation activities.

How the group works

• Attend 4 x 1 hour online meetings between February and April 2026
• Meetings will be held on Tuesdays or Thursdays, after 4pm
• Members are paid $35 per hour for each meeting attended
• Members are expected to review documents before each meeting; preparation time is voluntary and unpaid. We expect this will take around 30 minutes per meeting.

How to get involved

This opportunity is open to young people aged 15-25 who currently live in Tasmania. No previous experience is required, but you must be a library user or have knowledge of Libraries Tasmania services and be comfortable speaking up in a small group.

Applications close: Wednesday 18 February 2026.

To apply: complete a short online form (takes less than 5 minutes). We will ask you to tell us a little bit about yourself, why you'd like to be involved and which days and times you can attend the online meetings.
