To give you a brief overview of this opportunity, it is not just a standard cataloging job, but is open to working with your expertise and allowing you to explore and grow into new areas of interest. Responsibilities of the position evolve as the library environment continues to change. In addition to contributing to policy and procedure decisions, developing workflows, and seeking creative approaches for metadata management, you will foster an environment of collaboration and innovation. The position also includes some reference and departmental contact components, so the successful candidate will also be able to directly interact with students and faculty on campus and make a personal impact in these areas.  

As a library, we have created a new and exciting vision and pathways of distinction that will make the Mines Library distinct among Colorado and the country. Mines Library faculty and staff are excited to move the Library forward with technology-infused services and collections.  The small size of the library staff and campus will allow you to be an integral part of the Mines community. 

Founded in 1874, Mines was the first public institution of higher learning to open its doors in Colorado.  Mines has an international reputation for excellence in engineering and applied sciences.  We are committed to serving the people of Colorado, our nation and the global community in the development and stewardship of the Earth’s resources.  Mines is consistently ranked among the top engineering college in the United States and ranks number one as the best public school in the state for best value colleges.

Mines is located in the heart of Golden, Colorado, a western suburb of Denver.  The campus location offers a small-town ambiance with close proximity to all that the Denver metropolitan area has to offer with an abundance of cultural events, museums, theaters and sporting venues. An arid climate and an average 300 days of sunshine per year make the area an ideal place to live, work and play.

Interested?  Then don't delay!  The first consideration date is Monday, January 15, 2018! We look forward to seeing your application!  Have questions?  Contact search committee chair, Anna Seiffert ([log in to unmask]).
