Day-to-day operating brief

What Community Engagement Officer (Outreach) work looks like in practice

A Community Engagement Officer connects a library or archive with local groups that may not use its existing services. Terms should cover neighbourhood research, partner relationships, off-site events, co-design, venue safety, expenses, grants, accessibility, safeguarding, consent and evaluation. The officer should not describe attendance as long-term impact without evidence, promise funding to partners or collect sensitive community information simply because it may be useful later. Partnership records should distinguish a group expressing interest from a confirmed commitment with venue, date and responsibilities. Evaluation should capture barriers and non-attendance as well as positive comments, helping the service redesign outreach rather than repeatedly promoting an activity that remains inaccessible to intended participants.

Responsibilities reflected in the contract

Map communities and service barriers.
Build partnerships and co-design activity.
Organise outreach events and resources.
Manage consent access and safeguarding.
Evaluate participation and report learning.
