Library: Metadata Librarian. The NCSU Libraries invites applications and nominations for the position of Metadata Librarian to lead the metadata and data quality section in the Metadata and Cataloging Department. The incumbent will play a leadership role in library-wide non-MARC metadata projects and will lead projects in data management and workflow optimization. This position offers the opportunity to join a department that is committed to developing user-centered, transformative approaches to cataloging in a changing landscape of bibliographic control. The department is actively moving from workflows that emphasize item-by-item cataloging toward metadata creation processes that facilitate large-scale access to our collections and prioritize the discovery of hidden collections. NCSU Libraries was a US National Libraries Resource Description & Access (RDA) Test participant and is actively engaged in research to measure cost and value of metadata creation. Review of applications is underway; position will remain open until a suitable candidate is found. See vacancy announcement with application instructions at www.lib.ncsu.edu/jobs/epa.html. AA/OEO. NC State welcomes all persons without regard to sexual orientation. For ADA accommodations, please call (919) 515-3148.
