Apologies for cross-postings

Intute: Arts and Humanities (based in the University of Oxford, and 
Manchester Metropolitan University Library) has a vacancy for a reviewer 
of websites. Please would you help us to circulate this call to all 
appropriate lists.

We want to recruit a postgraduate (either a candidate for a doctorate, 
or a librarian or lecturer) to assist with the selection, evaluative 
review, and detailed cataloguing of websites which are of value to 
research, learning or teaching in the arts or humanities in the UK. 
These reviews and other presentations are then made freely available 
through the nationally funded Intute online service, see
http://www.intute.ac.uk/artsandhumanities/ 

In particular we are hoping to receive applications from experts in the 
following subjects:
  * Architecture
  * Classics
  * English
  * History
  * History and Philosophy of Science
  * Linguistics
  * Religion and Theology, in particular Islam or Hinduism
  * And all languages and area studies but especially for the study of 
Africa, Australasia, Middle East, North America, Southeast or South Asia.

You should have an eye for detail, excellent command of written English, 
knowledge and experience of using the Internet in your studies, 
research, or teaching, and good knowledge of the academic requirements 
of students, teachers, and researchers in your subject in the UK.

To apply please email [log in to unmask] by 1st March 2007 with 
the following information:
  1. attach a copy of your CV;
  2. explain your knowledge and experience of using the Internet in your 
work;
  3. tell us about one website which you think is missing from our 
collection. Consult our collection development policy (download as a 
Word document from http://www.intute.ac.uk/policy.html) and the Intute 
database to learn about our selection criteria and to ensure the 
resource is not already catalogued. Please write the title and URL and 
describe the online resource in less than 200 words.
  4. confirm that you are eligible to work in the UK, and that you have 
a UK bank account and that you have broadband or university network 
access to the Internet to be able to undertake this work;
  5. tell us how many hours per week (on average) you would like to work;
  6. put Intute in the subject line of your email

This employment is on a contract basis, paid at an hourly rate, by the 
Oxford University Computing Services (OUCS). This role will involve 
about 20 hours work per week on average, however this can be flexible. 
You must be eligible to work in the UK, and have a UK bank account. Work 
will normally take place in your home or office, (our system is 
available to use from any broadband or university network Internet 
connection). The successful candidate will undertake probationary 
training on our online system. Once this probationary period is complete 
the training reviews you submitted can be added to Intute's live 
database, and you will receive payment. Once training is completed the 
work will not be focused exclusively on your subject so flexibility is 
essential. Initially this employment is available until the end of July 
2007, when our financial year is completed. Further employment on a 
contract basis may be available.
