Dear colleagues
The Bodleian Libraries and Cambridge University Library have received
substantial funding from the Polonsky Foundation to appoint six Polonsky
Digital Preservation Fellows for a joint two-year project. These posts
offer an exciting opportunity to contribute to our work on digital
preservation. For more information and details of how to apply, see
http://www.bodleian.ox.ac.uk/about-us/jobs or
http://www.lib.cam.ac.uk/job/polonsky-digital-preservation-programme
Three Fellows will be based at each institution, and will work
collaboratively to address the development of systems and services to
support the long-term preservation of the libraries' digitised and
born-digital cultural heritage collections. The roles of the three
Fellows will be mirrored at each location, and will concentrate on the
areas of Policy and Planning; Outreach and Training; and Technical.
These six posts offer an exciting opportunity to help shape the digital
preservation activities at two of the world's foremost research
libraries, and to share with others the knowledge and experience learned.
If you have colleagues or recent students who have the skills and
enthusiasm to contribute to this challenging area of work, please
encourage them to apply!
(NB We have extended the closing date for applications to *29^th
February 2016*)
Best wishes,
Grant
