Librarian I
The Alaska State Library is looking for an outgoing individual to work with our team of librarians on an active program of services and outreach to State of Alaska employees. The successful applicant will be the primary liaison for the Departments of Education and Early Development, Environmental Conservation, Fish & Game and Natural Resources. Additionally the position provides up to 10 hours each week of public desk work.
About a quarter of this position's time is dedicated to supervising a 15% federal documents depository program. The Alaska State Library is a recognized leader in the acquisition and management of digital government information and is a participant in the GPO LOCKSS DOCS pilot project.
Alaska has seven Federal Depository Libraries and the successful applicant will be encouraged to explore new avenues to work with them to provide Alaskans better access to federal government information.
The Alaska State Library is located in downtown Juneau and is a member of the Capital City Libraries consortium.

For full job listing, please see Workplace Alaska at http://workplace.alaska.gov/ and look for the Librarian I in Juneau.
This position reports to the Government Publications/Technical Services Librarian (me). I want to assure any govdoc'r who applies for this position that you would have a free hand in federal publications, subject to the administration of the library. That means that I won't interfere in the day-to-day management of the depository, or you'd at least have the right to complain to me if I did.
If you're a real dyed-in-the-wool documents librarian, remember that only 25% of this position relates to federal documents. The other 75% will be very interesting, but if you only want to work fed docs, then this isn't the job for you. But if you like variety and a team-oriented workplace, come on up!
What is it like to live and work in Juneau, Alaska? Great, if you ask me.

Please look over the information and then consider applying. The job is open until October 20th. - Daniel
