The Dickinson College Library is recruiting a Digital Services Librarian.
Here's an excerpt from the ad (posting number: 0600314):
The Digital Services Librarian will lead the Library in identifying and incorporating innovative uses of technology in all areas of library services. The ideal candidate is a librarian with 3-5 years of relevant experience who is equally comfortable with both traditional academic library services and with new and emerging technologies for libraries and higher education. We are seeking someone who enjoys experimenting with technology and who can envision and articulate innovative uses of technology in an academic library setting. The ideal candidate will possess the enthusiasm for exploring new products and processes in a rapidly changing environment; the ability to implement them; the analytical skills to critically assess their effectiveness; and the flexibility to adapt them as needed. Of necessity, this role requires someone who is a strong collaborator and who is able to communicate effectively with librarians, IT professionals, faculty, students, and staff. The ideal candidate will be proactive in recommending improvements in library services and resource delivery, and be effective in leading project teams. A well-established liaison librarian program underpins our strong information literacy and collection development initiatives. As a liaison to several academic departments, the Digital Services Librarian will possess the strong teaching and outreach skills necessary for success in these central activities.
