Oxford University Library Services
Systems & Electronic Resources Service
Head of Oxford Digital Library
Academic Related Grade 5, Salary £35,251 - £39,958 p.a.

With the recent departure of the first Head of Oxford Digital Library, Dr
Norbert Lossau, to take up the post of University Librarian at Bielefeld, we
are now seeking to appoint his successor.

The Oxford Digital Library has recently been established as a key component
in the implementation of a comprehensive e-strategy for Oxford University
Library Services.  Three major objectives have been: the conversion of the
Bodleian Photographic Studio into an on-demand digitization service; new
support for teaching and research activities; and a significant production
stream of digitized material, based on Oxford's traditional holdings.

The Head of Oxford Digital Library is responsible for the planning,
development and management of the Oxford Digital Library.  We seek an
exceptional individual with considerable knowledge and experience of digital
resource management, research libraries and their needs, and the wide range
of technical, managerial, legal and financial issues of creating, delivering
and preserving scholarly digital material.  S/he should have the energy and
vision to direct the formation of the Oxford Digital Library rapidly and
effectively, and should be capable of representing the Oxford University
Library Services at the very highest level.

To discuss this post informally, please telephone David Price, +44 1865
280048.

Further particulars and application forms may be obtained from Melanie
Mclellan, Systems & Electronic Resources Service, Oxford University Library
Services, SERS Building, Osney Mead, Oxford OX2 0ES, (Tel: +44 1865 280040;
Fax: +44 1865 204937; Email: melanie.mclellan at sers.ox.ac.uk ), or from
http://www.sers.ox.ac.uk/vacancies/.  The closing date for completed
applications is 23rd December 2002.
