What You Can Expect

In this dynamic role, you’ll go beyond traditional librarianship. You’ll be a trusted partner to physicians, staff, and healthcare consumers—delivering expert search services, offering impactful training, and shaping the digital and physical library environment to support cutting-edge healthcare and education. In this position, you will have the opportunity to:

  • Keep Us Running Smoothly
    Maintain and document library systems, processes, and procedures with precision. Manage the online catalog to ensure all materials are accurate and up-to-date.

  • Be the Go-To for Collections & Subscriptions
    Oversee serial subscriptions, contribute to collection development, and track material orders to keep our library stocked with the best and most relevant resources.

  • Stay Ahead of the Curve
    Keep up with emerging tech and library trends. Your insights will help guide strategic decisions and future-ready programs.

  • Collaborate & Innovate
    Contribute to continuous improvement efforts across the library’s services and workflows. Your ideas matter here.
