Come work with me in Waco where everything is within a 15 minute drive (unless you want to go to Dallas or Austin which are ~1.5 hours away). We just got R1 status (and are investing in keeping the status) and have great benefits (like 10.8% of your salary towards retirement, with no match required). We're family friendly (little kids eat free at the dining hall and the entire family has access to the gym and marina during family hours) and have tuition remission (for kids, spouses, and you if you want to add another master's).We currently have a number of job openings if you're not interested in this job, but this particular job will work more closely with me.
Let me know if you have any questions about working at Baylor (or about being a librarian without a MLS)
Thanks,
--Christina
