DePaul University Library is currently recruiting a Data Services & Government
Information Services Librarian. The successful candidate will join a library

supporting DePaul's rapidly-expanding programs in Data Science

interest and potential growth at DePaul, and this will be an extraordinary

the service program in our library, and to work with campus and community
partners to show how the library contributes to the strategic goals of the
institution.

programs, including the first-year experience (Chicago Quarter), the Teaching
