Job Posting - Law Library Faculty Position - (Public Services) CUNY School of Law

An announcement from the CUNY School of Law:

JOB ANNOUNCEMENT

We are currently seeking at least one, but possibly two enthusiastic, energetic candidates dependent on funding, who are willing to be an integral part of the library management team at CUNY School of Law.  The successful candidate will be joining a library that is committed to providing the highest level of research support to students and faculty.  She/he will be responsible for providing reference services to the library community, teaching in the first year Legal Research Program in a collaborative environment, and assisting the Faculty Research Services Program.  The full time position will be filled at the entry or mid-level range depending on the experience of qualified candidates.  New graduates possessing both the J.D. and M.L.S. are encouraged to apply.

We are looking for individuals with a desire to help us further the Law School’s mission of “Law in the Service of Human Needs.” Towards that end, we are ideally looking for applicants whose background or experience illustrate a strong commitment to social justice and supporting our faculty and students’ work in the public interest.

Law Librarians are active participants in shaping the future of the institution.  They have full faculty status and are completely integrated into the governance processes of the Law School. Working with our colleagues outside of the Library, librarians add to the rich diversity of the law school experience by having their own scholarship interests, in addition to supporting those of the other members of the faculty.

All librarians must have a J.D. and M.L.S. in order to be considered for a tenure track faculty appointment.  Salary Range: Assistant Professor ($43,306 – $98,840); Associate Professor ($56,163 - $120,876).  Further detailed information can be found at:
