**Position Job Title**:Undergraduate Liaison Librarian
**Location**:University Canada West (UCW) - Vancouver House
**Reports To**:Manager of the Library and Learning Commons
**About University Canada West**:
University Canada West is an innovative business and technology-oriented, dynamic, and growing institution that was founded in 2005. Based in Downtown Vancouver, the university is defined by its close connections to the business community and a commitment to outstanding student services.
Here, at UCW, we connect recognized, well-established specialists and ambitious young professionals, so they learn from each other and thrive in our diverse environment. Together, we strive to create and maintain working environments that are inclusive, equitable, and welcoming.
We are privileged to do this work on the unceded, traditional territories of the xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and Sel̓íl̓witulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations. We thank them for having cared for this land since time immemorial, honour their graciousness to the students who seek knowledge here, and iterate our dedication to valuing the ongoing contributions of Indigenous peoples and communities.
**Primary Purpose**
Reporting to the Manager of the Library and Learning Commons, the Undergraduate Liaison Librarian would work as a team with our current Undergraduate Librarian to provide innovative student-centered support with a focus on our undergraduate programs and students. The Library reflects the focus of the University with a particular emphasis on resources relevant to contemporary business, communications, and technology.
UCW librarians provide resources and services to students studying in person at both Vancouver campuses as well as online. Librarians advise both students and faculty and provide them with the tools and strategies to discover, access, and effectively use the full range of information resources available to meet their teaching, learning, and research needs.
**Specific Responsibilities**
**1. Outreach**: engage students and faculty to identify needs, obtain feedback and suggestions for improvement of Library Services, and collections and promote the Library to these groups.
- Examples of responsibilities: meeting with faculty to establish learning outcomes for library workshops; designing and implementing a marketing plan for promoting the use of a particular library service/products; working with institutional committees to expand the reach of the library and identify areas of growth; working with faculty to support curriculum development.
- Examples of responsibilities: working in collaboration with faculty in research-focused courses to develop course-specific learning objects and expand general library workshop series to include information relevant to undergraduate student success.
In addition, the liaison librarian will play a critical role in ensuring that library operations run smoothly by:
- Collaborating with other full and part-time librarians as well as student assistants to enhance library services
- Collaborating with the Library manager and other Liaison Librarians to develop, manage and assess information resources to meet faculty teaching requirements and student learning needs
- Help circulate and manage the library print collection, including course reserve materials and library equipment
- Assisting students with research and reference services, including the AskAway chat service
**Position Requirements**
- MLIS degree from an ALA-accredited institution
- Up to 2 years of experience in a professional library; strong preference for academic library experience
- Proven ability to create effective working relationships with Library staff and users with a wide range of experiences and backgrounds
- Demonstrated experience planning and teaching classes/workshops in different modes of delivery (including in-person, online synchronous, and online asynchronous)
