>Dumbarton Oaks for the purpose of professional development for a librarian
>holding responsibility for Byzantine Studies, Garden History and Landscape

>that do not have a full-time specialist in the areas of Dumbarton Oaks'
>strengths, and to enhance our own library’s research services in an
>increasingly interconnected world. Applicants may be full time
>bibliographers with collection assignments in multiple specializations,
>reference librarians with additional responsibility for collection
>development, or bibliographers who also have technical services
>responsibilities. Facility in written and spoken English is required.
