My Old Job Is Open
Sep 30th, 2005 by Karen
I’ve sort of been out of touch with the move and new job. So I just noticed that my old job at SUNY Cortland is now available and being advertised. You can check out the job description on SUNY Cortland’s HR site. However, it doesn’t talk about why Cortland is a great place to work.
In my opinion, working at SUNY Cortland will provide you with a diverse library experience in a mid-sized library setting. Along with the job’s main duties, there will be reference desk work, probably teaching, and a chance to work with both the systems and web librarians. If you read my blog you know that I got to do a huge variety of things and really make the job my own. This job is a tremendous opportunity for the right person. There are a number of cool SUNY-wide initiatives like a SUNY-instance of DSpace that the person in this job may have the chance be involved in. Additionally, there are lots of new things going on in the library including an information commons initiative.
Cortland has many wonderful people to work with and many opportunities to be a part of the decision-making process. Because of its size it also is a place where you can make a real difference in the profession. Upstate New York is gorgeous and Cortland is relatively close to Ithaca and Syracuse. For me, Cortland was a great place to start my career. If you are interested in the job I strongly encourage you to apply.
