<p class="MsoNormal">Hello colleagues,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We are exploring creating a position spec for an entry-level professional librarian. Being such a flat organization (we are a department of 18), we have paraprofessional staff and consultants, but nothing in between. Would you be willing
to share your position specs for entry-level professional librarians. The way it works here is that we have a broad job spec with general responsibilities and then we add whatever sub-specialty (e.g. tech services, adult services, etc.) to that spec. If you
have a similar setup, I’d appreciate seeing your PDs.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thank you!<o:p></o:p></p>
