The first post is a Project Cataloguing Archivist – maternity cover for our Wellcome Trust funded project to catalogue Norman Dott’s case notes. There have been lots of really interesting blogs about this project from my colleagues over the past couple of years so I won’t go into too much detail here about what’s involved – check out the blog archive and our project pages on http://www.lhsa.lib.ed.ac.uk/projects/Cataloguingcasenotes.htm for more information. This post is fixed term for six months with the possibility of extension, and would be ideally suited to an archivist in the early stages of their career. The vacancy will go live on the job pages of Edinburgh University’s website (http://www.ed.ac.uk/schools-departments/human-resources/jobs) on Monday, and we’ll be updating Facebook and Twitter as soon the application process is open.
Our second post will be open for applications from later on today (at the University URL above). We’re looking for an Access Officer to join the team, and work with us to answer enquiries about our collections and services, and help open up the Archive to new audiences. This is a part time post, which is likely to be a good fit with someone who is interested in pursuing an archives career and would like to work in the sector whilst completing a distance learning qualification.
If either (or both) of these posts are of interest please
have a look at the University job pages for the full details including job
description, person specification, grading and timescale. And if these jobs aren’t
for you, but you know someone who might be interested, please do pass the info
along. We’re really pleased to be able to offer these exciting opportunities
within the archive sector, and look forward to welcoming two new people to the
team here at the Centre for Research Collections.
