The Catherwood Library has a job opening for a Labor & Employment Research Librarian! Please share with potential applicants!
I've included the introductory description text below, but all of the details such as required qualifications, environment, and how to apply are available at the Cornell Careers web site.
We are looking for someone who will join us in supporting the community of Cornell's ILR School – students, faculty, and staff – in using the resources of Catherwood Library to develop their scholarship and better our understanding of the multifaceted and rapidly changing world of work. We want you to be interested in connecting with communities both within and beyond ILR and Cornell, curious for others' research interests and your own, and eager to help build an equitable and anti-racist community. We welcome candidates who can speak to the opportunities and challenges of realizing these values in the workplace, in higher education, or in libraries.
In this position, you will work as a liaison librarian to a scholarly community that includes students, faculty, staff, and the people of Ithaca, New York State, and the world; a community that encompasses broad, interdisciplinary fields centered around the study of labor and employment in the US and abroad, with an increasing emphasis on the history, psychology, sociology, and law of work. You will connect with the members of this community through one-on-one reference consultations, standalone class sessions in support of teaching faculty, and other outreach activities.
Reporting to the Assistant Director of Catherwood Library as part of our Scholarly Services department, you will be a key member of a team of library workers and have the opportunity to collaborate with colleagues across multiple units within the Cornell University Library, and across the larger Cornell community.
If this sounds like you, we'd love to talk. And if it sounds like it could be you, please don't hesitate to apply! At Catherwood and CUL, we work together to solve problems, learn new skills, and support each another's work: we're looking for someone who wants to learn and grow alongside us.
Again, more details at Cornell Careers web site.
Thanks for any help you can provide in getting the word out!
