    Abstract

    Each year, as part of Library Ireland Week (LIW), Irish libraries are encouraged to engage in job swops. This initiative, championed by the Library Association of Ireland (LAI) (https://libraryassociation.ie/) is straightforward, with individual libraries organising swops and absorbing any costs involved. This article describes the experiences of six library assistants from Maynooth University (MU) (https://www.maynoothuniversity.ie/library) Ireland, who participated in job swop.
