University of York
J. B. Morrell Library and Raymond Burton Libraries
Humanities Subject Assistant (2 year fixed term post)
----------------------------
Post reference no.: BS 0390
The University of York is making a significant investment in library
services and collections to support learning, teaching and research in
the humanities, including the new Raymond Burton Humanities Research
Library building. To enable us to take full advantage of this investment
we have created a new post in the humanities subject librarian team.
We are seeking an enthusiastic, resourceful and self-motivated
individual with excellent communication skills and the initiative to
develop new approaches to supporting high quality research and teaching.
Excellent organisational skills and the ability to respond positively to
change are essential. Knowledge of one or more of the subject areas
concerned or experience in delivering information services in the
humanities, and a degree and/or professional qualification, will be an
advantage.
Concentrating mainly on English and History, you will work closely with
the Subject Librarian and academic departments to develop collections
(print and electronic), and provide information support, including web
pages and information skills training. Active liaison with academic
staff and students is an essential part of this role.
Salary will be in the range £15,053 - £17,416 per annum (pay
award pending).
The closing date for applications is 17 September 2003. Interviews will
be held on 10 October 2003.
For an informal discussion, please contact Christine Ellwood
([log in to unmask]; 01904 433890) after 8 September.
