University of California, Los Angeles
Los Angeles
The UCLA Library seeks an innovative, strategic, visionary, and collaborative
leader for the position of Associate University Librarian for Library Special
Collections and International Studies Programs to shape the future of special
collections and international studies programs at UCLA. As one of the world's
great public research universities, UCLA integrates education, research, and
public service so that each enriches and extends the others. From its
beautiful neighborhood campus in a uniquely diverse and vibrant city on the
Pacific Rim, teaching and research extend beyond the classroom, office, and
lab through active engagement with communities, organizations, projects, and
partnerships throughout the region and around the world.
Reporting to the University Librarian, the AUL is a key senior administrator
in the UCLA Library. The AUL supervises three major departments: the
Department of Library Special Collections (LSC) (an enterprise-wide
organization composed of the Library's special collections resources,
services, and operations across the campus) which this position heads, and
oversees the Library's International Studies programs (composed of the Richard
C. Rudolph East Asian Library (EAL), and the International Studies Department
(ISD) which encompasses Latin America, the Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia
and Pacific Islands).
The AUL has direct supervisory responsibility for and plans, organizes, and
oversees all aspects of LSC, EAL, and ISD operations and budgets. The AUL
fosters a flexible, collaborative work environment, and a strong team spirit,
allowing personnel to move easily between sections and departments and across
the organization to establish and support creative initiatives and facilitate
new partnerships and interdisciplinary projects. The AUL collaborates with
other senior administrators, departments, and units throughout the Library and
across the campus. Working closely with the University Librarian, senior
management team, the Executive Director of Library Development, and the
Library Office of Research Administration (LORA), the AUL develops fundraising
strategies, stewards and cultivates donors, and writes proposals to support
the goals and activities of LSC, EAL, and ISD.
The AUL serves as one of the primary spokespeople at campus, UC systemwide,
state, national, and international levels for issues and policies relating to
special collections and international studies programs, and ensures that the
UCLA Library actively participates in collaborative programs and services
regionally, nationally, and internationally; implements innovative
technologies including programs to build and preserve digital special and
international studies programs collections; and contributes to the advancement
of the UCLA Library.
