<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:7.5pt"><b>Description</b><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:7.5pt"><span lang="EN">Reporting to the Dean of University Libraries, the newly created position of Assistant Dean for Research and Collections </span>will provide strategic vision, policy and program development, and
leadership as the Libraries redefine their collections and support for research in the context of emerging trends in scholarly communication, changing formats and access models, shared collections, and new definitions of research collections. <span lang="EN">The
Assistant Dean contributes to Libraries-wide leadership for innovative program and content development in support of the University’s mission </span>through <span lang="EN">the Libraries’ units that comprise</span> Special Collections, Interlibrary Loan, Government
Documents, and Collection Management. Responsibilities of these areas include developing and maintaining strong, user-focused collections (print and electronic) in support of the University’s academic programs at all campuses; strengthening support for and
the reliability of Interlibrary Loan services; reviewing and enhancing the role of Government Documents in support of research and academic programs; building, strengthening, and increasing the use of and support for all Special Collections including: Jaffe
Center for Book Arts, Recorded Sound Archives, Print Music Collection, Marvin & Sybil Weiner Spirit of America Collection, and University Archives. The Assistant Dean works closely with Technical Services and the Head of Collection Management in monitoring
the collections budget for the Boca Raton Campus (in excess of $3 million), and works in close collaboration on collections with colleagues in the College of Medicine and on the Jupiter, Harbor Branch, and Fort Lauderdale campuses, as well as with colleagues
in the joint-use facility with Broward College in Davie<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:7.5pt">The Assistant Dean for Research and Collections is a member of the Libraries Senior Management Team, which also includes the Dean, the Assistant Dean for Public Services, the Assistant Dean for Information Technology,
Assessment, and Project Management, and a fourth Assistant Dean’s position whose portfolio is still being defined. Works closely with the Dean and other Assistant Deans on areas of strategic importance for the Libraries and the University and assists in articulating
an innovative vision of library services. Serves as a member of the Libraries Leadership Team, which includes the Dean, Assistant Deans, and department and unit heads. <span lang="EN">Under the leadership of a new Dean, the Libraries are in the process of
realigning their organizational structure and services to position them more strategically and effectively to support the current and future needs of FAU’s students, faculty, and the broader community.</span><o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom:7.5pt">Specific duties include: assisting with the implementation of a new Strategic Plan; leading a program review of assigned areas of responsibility; providing leadership for collection decisions made in the context
of changing user needs, emerging formats and access models, the continuing transition from a primarily print to a primarily electronic environment, and constrained financial resources; providing leadership and coordination for policies and processes related
to the development and management of all collections and improving users’ access to those collections; working with colleagues to develop a comprehensive program to support the University’s research mission; ensuring responsible stewardship of the collections
budget (approximately $3.5M annually), as well as donors’ investment in Libraries’ content and collections; promoting the development and creative use of the Libraries’ varied Special Collections; mentoring and promoting the ongoing professional development
of faculty and staff in the reporting units; working with colleagues to communicate the Libraries’ collection strategy and policy to the campus community; and serving as backup for the Dean as needed.<o:p></o:p></p>
