    Dear all,

     

    The Research Collections & Preservation Consortium (RECAP) is seeking an energetic and experienced Supervisor to oversee staff, maintain consistent and reliable workflows, expedite cross-partner borrowing via the Shared Collection Service, and help oversee a large library storage facility.

     

    ReCAP is a partnership of Princeton University, Columbia University, Harvard University, and The New York Public Library. The ReCAP facility encompasses seven shelving modules, a cold storage film vault, and a 25,000 square foot processing center. The facility resides on the Forrestal Campus of Princeton University in Plainsboro, NJ, and its current holdings of over 17 million items makes it the largest preservation repository in North America under one roof. ReCAP fulfills over 200,000 physical and electronic library requests per year for, and on behalf of, its partners.

    Ian
