assistant librarian
An assistant librarian is a specific job title with certain responsibilities and authority, more senior to a library assistant, who may or may not be an employee. A library assistant is someone who helps out in a library. The assistant librarian has a more senior role, second only to the chief librarian. So they would be much more involved in the practicalities of how the library is run. The library assistant would be involved in the more basic tasks like checking books in and out with members of the library, or putting books back on the shelves.
It depends what you're applying for ! If you're wanting a bus pass - try the library, council offices or transport company !
If you worked in a library I think I would put library assistant. If it was in a bookstore I would put bookstore sales assistant.
There should be an application online. If not you will have to go in and request an application.

A library assistant typically performs clerical and administrative tasks, such as checking materials in and out, shelving books, and helping patrons with basic requests. An assistant librarian, on the other hand, may have more advanced responsibilities, such as cataloguing materials, developing collections, assisting with research, and providing reference services. Assistant librarians usually have a higher level of education and may be involved in decision-making processes within the library.
