CLASSIFICATION TITLE: AST/ASO UNIV LIBRARIAN
JOB DESCRIPTION:
The Scholarly Communications Librarian is responsible for providing leadership for the George A. Smathers Libraries at the University of Florida’s services in support of students and faculty seeking guidance on fair use, copyright and intellectual property, as well as outreach and training efforts to build a scholarly communications program that supports open scholarship, open education, and open data. This twelve-month, tenure-track faculty position educates the university community about modes of open access scholarly publication, copyright and intellectual property issues and their impact on scholarly inquiry and instruction. The Scholarly Communications Librarian will form strong collaborations with colleagues across the libraries to provide training and consultant services to strengthen and broaden copyright and publishing competencies within the Libraries.

The Scholarly Communications Librarian also provides guidance on repository services and support for researchers’ publication, preservation, and funder compliance needs. This includes advising on the Institutional Repository at the University of Florida (IR@UF) as well as general, funder, and subject-specific repositories. This will include maintenance and outreach supporting the UF Author Rights Policy, implemented in Spring 2022.

Developing and maintaining strong partnerships is a major focus of this role, and the Scholarly Communications Librarian will play a key role on initiatives that require a detailed understanding of copyright and Creative Commons licensing. In consultation with UF General Counsel as needed, the Scholarly Communications Librarian will provide expert guidance to various units in the Libraries that frequently navigate rights-related issues, including Library Press@UF, Affordable UF, Special and Area Studies Collections, digital collections, course reserves, and others.

The library encourages staff participation in reaching management decisions and consequently the Scholarly Communications Librarian will serve and lead on various committees and teams and will pursue professional development opportunities, including research, publication, and professional service activities to meet library-wide criteria for tenure and promotion.

The Smathers Libraries is committed to creating a thoughtful, equitable, and inclusive culture that provides space for innovation and creativity. We support that commitment by offering fulfilling work experience that allows for collaboration, growth, and development as well as shared perspectives.
