system programming staff. Must have excellent interpersonal skills and the
experience to supervise a small support staff.

Requirements. Master's degree with 6 or more years of relevant experience in

projects involving the use of on-line resources is essential. Extensive
experience with applications for the preparation and implementation of large
volumes of digital information. Excellent organizational, teaching, and
communication skills. Familiarity with BRS, PAT (Open Text Systems) and SGML
