Dear All,
Please feel free to circulate this part-time job opportunity in Oxford.
Part of Oxford University Computing Services, the Learning Technologies
Group seeks a dynamic project officer to work on the JISC-funded project
"RunCoCo" (http://runcoco.oucs.ox.ac.uk)
* running a communication campaign and developing engaging Web content to
successfully promote the RunCoCo project and support its user community
* managing project events and overseeing the production of training
materials
* providing advice to a number of community digitisation projects
Details and an application form are available from
http://www.oucs.ox.ac.uk/jobs/ Completed applications must be received by 12
noon on 26th March 2010, and interviews will be held on 7th April 2010.
RunCoCo is a JISC-funded project (based at the Learning Technologies Group
of OUCS) which uses training activities to encourage the formation of
community collections. In community collection projects the cost of
digitising photographs (or films or interviews) is spread out across the
community (education and public sectors) and not borne entirely by the host
institution. The community involvement sometimes focuses more on users
tagging or commenting on existing collections, rather than the public
contributing digital items. RunCoCo will demonstrate how successful
collections can be put together by smaller individual units than the
expensive digitisation projects that receive funding from traditional (and
now severely reduced) sources. More details are on the website

Best wishes, Kate
