Hello Code4liber's I was talking to someone from Rowan University after giving a presentation yesterday and he was telling me about an opening they have for a Web Development Librarian. I'm not sure what the pay range is, but the position is an AFT position that has the same contract as I do at TCNJ (that is negotiated by the State of NJ) and as far as librarian positions go, the pay and benefits aren't all that bad.............
