Post ref. ELL 866/EXT32
Two archivists are required for one year for a project to catalogue and
promote access to the Merseyside Jewish Community Archives held at Liverpool
Record Office.
The Merseyside Jewish Community is one of the oldest in Britain. Its
existence in Liverpool is recorded from 1742. Until the mid- 19th century it
was also the largest provincial Jewish Community.
This project is supported by the Heritage Lottery Fund and the J P Jacobs
Charitable Trust. It primarily involves the cataloguing of the extensive
collection of archives, which date from the early 19th century onwards.
Cataloguing will be carried out using the CALM system. The archivists will
also be required to supervise a small team of volunteers, research and help
to produce a travelling display and promotional leaflet, and assist with
some oral history recordings to be carried out by the North West Sound
Archive.
The successful candidates will have initiative, a flexible approach,
effective communication skills, and effective ICT skills. The ability to
catalogue to current standards and to meet deadlines is essential.
You will be committed to service delivery and best practice in customer
care. You will display a commitment to equal opportunities and its
implementation for the service.
Students currently completing archive courses are welcome to apply.
Closing date for applications: 31 May 2002
For a detailed job description and application form please ring Liverpool
Direct on 0151 233 3003 (24 hours a day, 7 days a week) quoting the post
