Job Summary

The Harvard Library seeks a collaborative, strategic, and results-oriented leader for the newly created position of Associate University Librarian for Antiracism.

The ideal candidate for this position will have a broad vision for the role of antiracism in shaping the future of research libraries and achieving institutional excellence, as well as a strong track record in managing change, building and supporting initiatives that promote equity, diversity, inclusion, and belonging, and a sophisticated understanding of anti-racism philosophy and resources. With strong support of the library's senior leadership, the AUL for Antiracism will help synthesize, integrate and further catalyze the library's equity, diversity, inclusion, belonging, and antiracism efforts across all aspects of the library's mission.

Although the position will remain posted until filled, applicants are strongly encouraged to apply by end of day on December 13, 2020.

Responsibilities

Reporting to the Vice President (VP) for the Harvard Library and University Librarian and Roy E.

The AUL serves as an active member of the VP's senior team, sharing in responsibility for library-wide planning and resource allocation, and providing vision and advice on organizational development, diversity and social justice matters, communication strategies, and crisis management. The AUL engages as a thought-leader with colleagues across the Harvard Library and faculty, students and staff across the university in advancing strategies for an inclusive library climate and all aspects of equity, diversity, inclusion, belonging and antiracism in the library's workforce, services, collections and spaces.
