I'm going to be relocating shortly and I am interested in working in the public library system. Until now I have been in an academic library and have had no problems at all with shabbat or holidays. Is it possible for an Orthodox person in the NJ/NY area to work in the public library system? Here in Cincinnati and N. Kentucky, I was told that working on Saturdays is a requirement for all applicants, which is an allowable expectation because they are not discriminating against any specific religion.
Thanks for chiming in (anecdotal evidence will be welcomed as well!)
