THE SEARCH

Rutgers University Libraries seek a leader with drive, vision, and the skills to manage through change and complexity to serve as the Associate University Librarian, Rutgers University–New Brunswick (AUL). Leading the eight Rutgers–New Brunswick based locations, Special Collections and University Archives, and the associated faculty librarians and professional staff, the AUL serves as a collaborative leader within the Rutgers University Libraries system and an essential contributor to the success of an R1, state flagship institution.

Rutgers University–New Brunswick is New Jersey’s land‑grant institution, a member of the Association of American Universities (AAU), and the largest of the four Rutgers divisions, with 50,000 students and highly ranked schools, departments, and doctoral programs. Rutgers University–Camden, Rutgers University–Newark, and Rutgers Health round out Rutgers University. Rutgers University Libraries are a unified system that serves all four University divisions. As a single, integrated organization, the Libraries support the academic and research needs of faculty, staff, and students across the University.

Beyond the campus community, the Libraries also serve local residents, national scholars, and global researchers, advancing knowledge and access to information on a broad scale.

As a senior leader within the Libraries and with direct responsibility for all libraries based at Rutgers–New Brunswick, the AUL will be an adept organizational strategist, a talented manager who builds trust and capacity, and a knowledgeable library professional who understands the activities and requirements of a large, complex, multicampus R1 university. The AUL will lead in a time of significant change with collaboration, respect, and transparency, supporting and empowering the professionals who animate the Libraries’ work toward the fulfillment of the organization’s strategic plan and organizational priorities.

The AUL will also be a skilled communicator with an unwavering and demonstrated commitment to building collaborative partnerships both throughout and beyond the Libraries; furthering diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging; and supporting the development of their teams.
