Subject: US - OR -Library Automated Systems Manager

Library Automated Systems Manager (Library Network Supervisor) -
Clackamas County, Oregon.

The Library Information Network of Clackamas County (LINCC) is a
library consortium serving 11 public libraries.  Clackamas County is
located in the south metro area of Portland Oregon and is recognized
nationally as one of the most livable areas in the US, extending from
the southern edge of Portland to the top of Mt. Hood.  Enjoy all the
urban amenities of a thriving metropolitan area with countless outdoor
recreation prospects of the Pacific Northwest (coast to mountains!).

The 11 public libraries are all independent entities that cooperate by
sharing a single automation system and centralized
bibliographic/electronic resources.  http://www.lincc.org

LINCC is re-opening the search for a highly skilled, motivated
individual to be the software automation manager of the shared library
computer system. The LINCC Network office has been re-organized (in
January 2008) so that fewer staff now report to this position
(Automated Systems Manager).  Our intention is to allow the incumbent
adequate time to focus his/her efforts on the library automation
software and web portal programs.

We are proud of the fact that the working atmosphere in our consortium
among the library members and between the libraries and the LINCC
Network staff is very collaborative and friendly. Mutual respect is
the foundation of our consortium and makes the job of the LINCC
Network staff that much easier.

LINCC libraries circulate over 6.2 million items a year on their
classic Dynix system, but are just beginning a migration to the new
SirsiDynix Symphony product (estimated migration date Dec 15, 2008).
Experience with any of the "second generation" library automation
products on the market place, experience with library system
migrations or with the development and maintenance of a
web-site/portal for a consortium of libraries would be valuable to us.

This is a professional/supervisory position requiring excellent
communication skills, proven supervisory experience of staff, and
library automation system software experience.  Desirable candidates
will possess extensive library experience and 5 or more years directly
managing an integrated library computer system.  MLS is desired, but
not required if the candidate has sufficient experience managing an
automated system in a library environment.  Salary range $4562 - $6160
Per Month plus 6% retirement contribution and other excellent
benefits.
