Barnard College seeks an innovative and thoughtful leader as its next Dean for Barnard Library and Archives. Reporting directly to the Provost and Dean of Faculty, the Dean provides intellectual, strategic, operational, and visionary leadership for the Library in alignment with Barnard's vision, mission, and strategic goals. The Library is housed in the Milstein Center for Teaching and Learning, a building at the center of the campus that brings together the library, several academic centers, departments, classrooms, and informal gathering spaces. Working with our distinguished faculty and staff, the Dean will join an extraordinary team of scholars engaged in innovative research and transformative teaching within Barnard's distinctive academic culture, which combines the benefits of an outstanding liberal education with the opportunities of a major research university.
The Dean of Barnard Library and Archives provides leadership for an interdisciplinary, collaborative space of intellectual discovery, cutting edge research and transformative teaching.

The Dean will develop, articulate, and bring to life a vision for the Library's future, aligning that vision with the College's mission and College-wide strategies; provide inspired leadership to a highly professional, collaborative, committed, and service-focused team; support, advocate for, and provide access to resources for research, teaching, and learning for faculty and students; and guide the continuing evolution and implementation of new technology and services that enhance the Library's digital and physical presence.
The successful candidate will bring extensive experience working in collaborative, innovative, digital, and interdisciplinary environments and will possess a deep understanding of current issues relevant to academic librarianship, including information services, pedagogy and inquiry, digital libraries and library technologies, scholarly communication, assessment, strategic planning, and advocacy. The Dean will manage a highly collaborative and complex organization with skill, integrity, and respect. A commitment to open communication and consultative leadership, combined with strong interpersonal, problem solving, and decision‑making skills, is crucial.
