    Hi everyone:

    Clemson University Libraries seeks a collaborative and inclusive library degree holder who is looking for their first professional academic librarian position to participate in a three-year residency program. The residency is a full-time, 12-month non-tenure track temporary lecturer position. Job duties will be at a professional level appropriate to a faculty librarian position and various benefit plans are available, along with annual leave, sick leave, and paid holidays. It is designed to match your professional interests and goals with the service and strategic priorities of the Libraries outlined in the Clemson Libraries Strategic Plan. You will have the opportunity to tailor the residency and develop goals according to your professional interests. The residency features orientation to multiple areas of academic librarianship at a research university and completion of at least two major projects, resulting in a diverse portfolio of activities.

    The minimum salary for the position is $58,410 and will be based on the successful candidate's qualifications and experience. A qualified candidate for this role will have a recent MLIS from an ALA-accredited program (proof of degree completion needed at the time of appointment), excellent interpersonal, oral and written communication skills and a strong commitment to equity, diversity, and inclusion in the workplace. Consideration will also be given to those seeking to transition from a non-academic or non-faculty library position to academic librarianship with an earlier degree completion date. 


    Please use the following link: http://apply.interfolio.com/102903 to apply for the position. 


    Thank you!
