Associate University Librarian, Content and Access Division

Type of position: Replacement

Contract Duration: 1 year

Job Category: Librarian

Faculty: University of Ottawa Library

Division: Content and Access

Together with the Library’s leadership team, the Associate University Librarian is expected to foster an inclusive, accessible environment in the context of a university community that values and promotes principles of equity, diversity, accessibility, anti racism and inclusion.

Setting: The University of Ottawa is recognized nationally and internationally as one of the best universities in the country and the largest bilingual university (French and English) in the world. Located on the unceded territory of the Anishinabé-Algonquin people, in the heart of downtown Ottawa, it contributes significantly to the economy, culture and quality of life of Canada’s Capital.

Title of the position: Associate University Librarian, Content and Access (Replacement)

**Duties**:
Reporting to the University Librarian and Vice Provost, the Associate University Librarian (AUL) provides strategic and administrative leadership for functions in their assigned portfolio.

The Content and Access division brings together all activities directly related to the Library’s collections: developing and managing the library collection, providing access to the content of the collection, through metadata and discovery systems, and administering content management systems. The Library’s collection consists of physical and digital resources selected and made accessible to support the teaching and research missions of the University. The Content and Access division is responsible for the oversight of all collections, with the exception of archival materials, and provides standards and guidance relating to the full collection management cycle.

Specific leadership responsibilities for the AUL within the Content and Access portfolio include:

- managing the full spectrum of responsibilities around the development, management, preservation, and dissemination of content resources
- fostering collaborative strategies to shape a robust and sustainable environment for scholarly content
- ensuring that the development and management of collections fulfill the needs of the user community and are aligned with the strategic priorities of the University
- contributing to the strategic development of local, provincial, and national strategies in preservation, digitization, and access.

Terms: Replacement position (12 months)

September 1, 2023 - August 30, 2024 (12 months)

Wage: Rank and salary will be commensurate with qualifications and experience.

Benefits package: The University of Ottawa provides a complete benefits package which includes long term disability, basic group life insurance, supplementary health insurance, University of Ottawa Pension Plan, optional life insurance and reimbursement of relocation fees.
