Position Purpose

Under the general direction of the Director of Library Services and in close collaboration with Library faculty and staff, this position oversees the operations and management of the Technical Services Department, including managing the Technical Services budget, acquisitions, cataloging, electronic resources, technical services systems (e.g., Alma, Primo, EZproxy, link resolver, etc.), and collection maintenance.

We seek candidates whose work will contribute to Evergreen’s local and global commitment to social justice, diversity, environmental stewardship and service in the public interest. This includes supporting an equitable, and inclusive learning and working environment for our students, staff, and faculty. The Daniel J. Evans Library condemns discrimination in all its forms and works to continually improve its policies, procedures, and practices in this regard. In our daily work we seek to remove barriers and provide resources and services that are free and accessible, that represent diverse viewpoints, perspectives, and backgrounds, and to create an environment where everyone in our communities feels invited and welcomed.
