Resource Services Librarians are subject specialists, each of
whom is responsible for building strong, client-centered
relationships with the faculty and students in the handful of
disciplines he or she serves.

The Eisenhower Library is commited to working as a valued and
significant partner in the academic enterprise. This commitment
is being manifested in four key ways: a concentration on
designing services which respond to continuous user feedback; a
commitment to enabling faculty, students and staff to master the
new information environment; a strongly focused effort toward
creating the digital library of the future; and a major
remodeling and programmatic re-orientation of the library's
service spaces.

The Eisenhower Library prizes initiative, creativity, and
professionalism and offers challenge, independence, and
visibility to members of its Resource Services team.

RESPONSIBILITIES

Understand the work of the French, Hispanic and Italian Studies,
and German departments, cultivate and maintain close working
relationships with the members of those departments. Select

and manage the materials budget for each subject. Provide a
variety of instructional and research services to the academic
community.

QUALIFICATIONS

MLS from an ALA accredited library school required, and an
advanced degree in one of the four assigned subjects, or
equivalent experience strongly desired.
Two or more years' experience in collection development and/or
reference in a research library preferred.
Ability to conduct seminars and instructional programs in the use
of the library and its resources.
Reading knowledge of German and two romance languages highly
desirable.
Willingness to work a flexible schedule (including some evenings
and weekends) as part of a team.
Knowledge of automated library systems.
Knowledge of Internet and World Wide Web.

The hiring range for this position is $32,000 - $43,400,
depending on education and experience.

insurance; tuition benefits; TIAA/CREF retirement program, and
group health plan cost shared by individual and university.
