                          *** New Position ****
                        COMPUTER SERVICES LIBRARIAN
 
 
The University of Wisconsin Law Library, in Madison, has an opening for a
Computer Services Librarian, with an anticipated starting date any time after
January 1, 1994. This position requires an MLS and substantial knowledge of
and aptitude for computer technology, particularly microcomputers and
networking. Additionally, we are seeking someone with a minimum of one to
two years of law library or computer-related experience. A JD may substitute
for law library experience.
 
Responsibilities include managing the Law Library's extensive and growing
computer services, including overall supervision of several computer labs,
overseeing expansion of a Novell LAN (which extends throughout the Law School
and links to a campus network), providing instruction and computer assistance
to faculty, staff and students, and representing the Library's computer
technology interests at the campus level and beyond.
 
This position will supervise a non-professional full-time technical assistant
and student support staff and work under the Assistant Director for
Information Services and closely with the Director, Automation Librarian and
other librarians.
 
The University of Wisconsin Law Library is firmly committed to maintaining a
leadership role in its use of newer technologies. To further this commitment
we have added several staff members with technological expertise and
inaugurated an array of innovative services and programs within the past
several years, including extending network access to study carrels, beginning
a computer laptop check-out program for law students, and adding CD-ROM
databases to the network. A Law Library building addition to be completed
over the next several years will provide additional opportunities for
expanding our use of technology.
 
We view the Computer Services Librarian as a key position for the continuing
development of the Law Library and believe this is a terrific opportunity for
the right individual.
 
Salary and benefits will be competitive, with a required minimum starting
salary of at least $29,352 and generous fringe benefits.
 
Applications (to include a cover letter, resume and the names of three
references) should be sent to:
 
     Bill Ebbott, Chair
     Computer Services Search Committee
     University of Wisconsin Law Library
     Madison, WI 53706
 
     telephone: (608) 262-7238
     email: ebbott@macc.wisc.edu
 
We would like to begin scheduling interviews soon, so applications should be
received by November 15, to be assured of consideration.
 
 
Unless confidentiality is requested in writing, information regarding the
applicant must be released upon request. Finalists cannot be guaranteed
confidentiality.
 
The University of Wisconsin is an equal opportunity employer and specifically
invites applications from women and minorities.
