The George Washington University Libraries and Academic Innovation is
seeking a collaborative and service-oriented *Collections Strategist* to
join the Research and User Services (RUS) department. RUS is a highly
collaborative unit where librarians work together to meet student, faculty,
and researcher needs across disciplines. Critical to this work is the
development, management, assessment, and discovery of our research
collections. As an active member of RUS, the Collections Strategist will
lead our team-based collection development and maintenance efforts that are
responsive to user need; steward university resources to acquire
collections that provide this highest possible value to the GW community;
and make data-driven decisions that align collections strategy and
investments with ever-evolving research, teaching, and scholarly
communications needs and aspirations. LAI staff and librarians are
champions of open access and support open scholarly communication and
publishing practices, including the adoption and creation of open
educational resources. We also contribute to the scholarly community
through our own research, professional engagement, and service.

This position will collaborate across institutions, including the GWU Health
Sciences and Law Libraries, and our partner institutions within the
Washington Research Library Consortium (WRLC), to develop shared
collections and to explore issues, challenges, and opportunities to advance
cooperative collection development.

This position is classified as a *Council of Librarians*
<https://library.gwu.edu/council-librarians> position and is eligible for a
hybrid on-campus/remote work schedule. For more information and to apply,
please see the full posting. <https://www.gwu.jobs/postings/118234>

Feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
