Associate University Librarian for Digital Initiatives and Information Technology
The UC Berkeley Library is seeking a dynamic and collaborative leader to manage and grow the digital initiatives portfolio. The Associate University Librarian (AUL) for Digital Initiatives and Information Technology also serves as the Associate CIO for the UC Berkeley Library. This person will lead the Library's rapidly expanding Digital Lifecycle Program (DLP), the Library IT department, Data Science Services, the Assessment Program, and Resource Sharing Services in support of the University of California, Berkeley's world-renowned culture of research and innovation. The Library is looking for a leader with proven experience, bold ideas, and the confidence and political acumen to execute them.
As part of the Library Cabinet the AUL will work closely with the University Librarian and all members of the Cabinet to help set the Library's strategic goals, priorities, and policies. The AUL will work collaboratively to manage the execution of initiatives in their portfolio and those that span across the organization in service of the Library's mission and its vision to "be a leader and partner in creating and implementing ideas and services that advance research, teaching, and learning." The AUL will manage a budget of $5 million annual operating costs and a total staff size of 75 FTE.
The University of California, Berkeley, is one of the world's most iconic teaching and research institutions. Since 1868, Berkeley has fueled a perpetual renaissance, generating unparalleled intellectual, economic, and social value in California, the United States, and the world.
Berkeley's culture of openness, freedom, and acceptance - academic and artistic, political and cultural - make it a very special place for students, faculty, and staff. Berkeley is committed to hiring and developing staff who want to work in a high-performing culture that supports the outstanding work of our faculty and students. Candidates are encouraged to learn more about the UC Berkeley Workplace Culture.
Reporting to the University Librarian, the AUL for Digital Initiatives will develop and lead Library initiatives that rapidly increase the digitization of the Library's collections; enhance discovery, delivery, accessibility, and usability of resources within and beyond the collections we hold; and, together with the AUL for Scholarly Resources and the AUL for Special Collections, ensure preservation of our born digital and digitized collections. As an innovative leader, the AUL will lead pilots and experimental technology projects to leverage emerging technologies, including the use of AI, for the benefits of all scholars.
The AUL has a formal relationship with Berkeley's Associate Vice Chancellor for Information Technology (CIO) and the campus IT Leadership Group and will participate in the campus's collaborative IT governance structure. The AUL actively builds relationships with other research and technology partners - including those that support research data management and data science - on campus, within the California Digital Library, and across the other nine University of California campuses.
The successful candidate will have strong collaboration and coordination across multiple teams in one or more institutions similar to the Berkeley Library, usually associated with five or more years of experience. An advanced degree - Master's, PhD or equivalent in a relevant subject is required. Additionally, the successful candidate will have experience and/or education in effective digital innovations and programs, Library Information Technologies, experience in managing large teams, and budgetary oversight.
