Associate University Librarian and Director of Systemwide Library Facilities - UC Berkeley Library

On behalf of the University of California (UC) Libraries, which are comprised of the ten campus libraries and the California Digital Library, the UC Berkeley Library is hiring a Systemwide Library Facilities (SLF) Director to oversee SLF-North and SLF-South and collaboratively respond to and advance the long-term physical preservation and access needs of the libraries.

The SLF Director partners with UC Libraries’ shared governance and key stakeholders to expand upon and implement the University’s vision for transformative, sustainable and efficient systemwide physical collection management. This role will direct and oversee the work of the SLF staff at both facilities, as well as any future facilities. Shared governance groups that the director will work with include the Systemwide Library Facilities Board (SLFB or “Board”), UC Council of University Librarians (CoUL), UC Shared Print Strategy Team (SPST) and Shared Content Leadership Group (SCLG).

The SLF Director is responsible for the leadership and management of the SLFs; the director creates the strategic direction in direct consultation with the SLFB. The director position is equivalent to an Associate University Librarian and reports directly to the UC Berkeley Library University Librarian, who is accountable for the systemwide success of the SLFs, and works closely with the SLFB chair and vice chair to ensure the priorities and goals of the UC system are reflected in the SLFs.

The director will carry out multiple site visits at both SLF-North and SLF-South each year to advance the strategic and operational work of the facilities.
