The Stanford University Libraries seek an energetic, intellectually engaged
subject specialist with training in an Earth Sciences discipline to develop
and manage collections supporting the following academic areas: Earth
Sciences, Geophysics, Petroleum Engineering, and Earth Systems. The
Librarian works closely with faculty and advanced students to facilitate
research and encourages the use of Stanford's rich holdings of subject
materials through collection development activities, advanced reference
help, and bibliographic instruction.

The Librarian is a member of the Science and Engineering Resource Group and
participates actively in the Group's programs. The Librarian reports to the
Head of Branner Earth Sciences Library and Map Collections, but also
maintains effective working connections with many other units. The ability
to work flexibly and personably with a wide range of colleagues and to
negotiate skillfully a complex academic environment is indispensable.

The position requires demonstrated subject interest; desire to work in a
research library; and a master's degree from an ALA-accredited library and
information science school or the equivalent in training and experience.

Preference will be given applications received by October 15, 2004.
