        From: Hannah Scates Kettler 
        Subject: Position: Digital Preservation Librarian

The Iowa State University Library is seeking a Digital Preservation
Librarian to lead the development, documentation, implementation, and
management of our digital preservation program. This position will
provide expertise and coordinate efforts to safeguard the University
Library's local digital assets, both born-digital and converted,
including electronic records, digital objects (text, image, audiovisual,
3D), web pages, and datasets. The Digital Preservation Librarian, at a
level of Librarian I or II, will assess the state of our digital
preservation activities; help identify collection priorities; and
create, maintain, and enforce policies, procedures, workflows, and
strategies for sustainable digital preservation and access practices. In
addition, the Librarian will implement other recommendations from the
University Library Digital Preservation Planning Project Report,
completed in August 2019. The Librarian will, also, work with the Iowa
Regent Libraries to develop the groundwork for collaborative/shared
digital preservation efforts, and represent the university in matters
concerning digital preservation at the local, national and international
levels.

Important attributes will include how to plan, organize, set and achieve
goals. Having the ability to effectively communicate and collaborate
will be essential to success, as the candidate will be working alongside
the department to achieve this goal. They will also need to be able to
work in a team environment as they will be working alongside multiple
library departments to achieve library strategic goals. The candidate
will also need to embrace the Library's core values, demonstrate
collegiality, and have strong commitment to public service and the land
grant mission.

ISU students, staff, and faculty strive to overcome historical and
divisive biases in our society. Library staff must embrace an
environment of inclusion that moves beyond simple tolerance to
recognizing the richness in individual identities of people, and diverse
perspectives. This directly impacts the work of the Digital Preservation
Librarian as they develop, enforce and implement policies, procedures
and workflows for the Iowa State University Library.

Dear colleagues,

Please spread the word about the Linked Infrastructure for Networked Cultural
Scholarship (LINCS) posting for a Technical Manager. In case people missed it, I
am also pasting in below the ad for the Project Manager posted last week.

Both of these are 3-year full-time research scientist positions with benefits.
We are looking for people who will become collaborators and leading members of
the team. We welcome applications from outside Canada.

Project Manager deadline: Nov. 29
Technical Manager deadline: Dec. 3
More information about both positions can be found on links on this page:
https://lincsproject.ca/were-hiring/

LINCS Technical Manager

This position offers an exciting opportunity to make a substantial contribution
to a critical infrastructure project aiming for high impact within and beyond
the academy. Reporting to the Implementation Chair, Dr. Deb Stacey, as a member
of the Executive Committee, the Technical Manager will manage and contribute to
the implementation of this high-profile, multi-institutional cyberinfrastructure
project in digital humanities, working closely with the Technical Committee, the
Project Manager, and the support of the Technical Advisory Board to ensure
project success with a geographically distributed team.

The position involves implementing and extending open source software, and
provides the opportunity to design an extensive and sustainable software
architecture that will have an impact on how humanities scholars from a wide
range of disciplines conduct their research, as well as creating a major data
resource that makes important cultural data more accessible to the general
public.
