<p style="color:rgb(59,59,59); text-align:left">The Caltech Library is recruiting a Head of Research Services to provide leadership on designing and implementing a research service vision that responds to the current and emerging needs of researchers and students
and that leverages the strengths of an institution of Caltech's size and prominence. The position is a key member of the Library's executive leadership team.</p>
<p style="color:rgb(59,59,59); text-align:left">The Research Services department is composed of 8 librarians and 3 support staff. The department staff supports five programmatic areas: collection management; outreach, instruction and reference services; repository
services; acquisitions; and metadata. The department has six subject specialist librarians in Biology and Biological Engineering; Chemistry and Chemical Engineering; Engineering and Applied Science; Geological and Planetary Sciences; Physics, Math and Astronomy;
and Humanities and Social Sciences. Subject librarians work closely with the campus research community and have responsibilities for collection development, research services, outreach and instruction. The department also includes the digital repository librarian,
who oversees the highly distributed work of CaltechAUTHORS and other repositories. <a href="http://authors.library.caltech.edu/" style="color:rgb(7,67,135)" target="_blank">CaltechAUTHORS</a> has been archiving faculty research since 2001 and contains over
40,000 articles with more than 5 million downloads. An acquisitions, processing and catalog maintenance team of 3 staff works with subject librarians, publishers, vendors and regional consortia to manage the Library's largely electronic $3.25 million materials
budget, and performs metadata and e-resources management work to support discovery and access. Caltech's repositories and digital collections are built on the EPrints and Islandora platforms; the ILS is Innovative Interfaces; and discovery is supported by
SFX.</p>
