Reporting to the Director of Digital Scholarship & Public Services, the Librarian works closely with a diverse group of faculty, students, and staff engaging with emerging technology for projects and coursework.

Minimum of 2 years working with digital tools and methods in research center or library contexts. An equivalent combination of degree and experience will be considered.

Demonstrated knowledge of learner-centered pedagogy and best practices in library instruction and information literacy at the college level. Commitment to undergraduate research, teaching, and learning. Strong collaborative and organizational skills. A successful record of working collaboratively with library colleagues, faculty, administrators, staff and students to accomplish goals.
