1000 people apply for positions at Christchurch's new central library

Nicole Mathewson Reporter from The Press

Demand for jobs at Christchurch's new $92 million central library has surpassed expectations after 1000 people applied for 45 positions.

Tūranga, the Christchurch Central Library, will be the largest library in the South Island and a third larger than the city's former central library, which was demolished after the February 2011 earthquake.

It's expected to open later this year, but an exact date is yet to be confirmed.
