Oh hey!
Are you interested in joining my list of people who hire and have opinions to share?
I’m restarting the feature Further Questions, a deeper dive into specific hiring questions, and am looking for more people to answer questions.
I’m interested in different perspectives, so you might be or have been a member of a search committee, a manager, an administrator, HR, or something else entirely. Likewise, you might be in libraries, archives, or a different field that hires LIS workers. You should be someone who:
- Has participated in hiring at least one LIS worker
- Has some insider knowledge of how hiring works at your particular organization
- Is willing to let me email you a question about once a month
If you join the list, there is never any obligation to reply. You can answer anonymously or non-anonymously.
If you are interested or would like to chat more about it, please use the contact form or email me at hiringlibrarians AT gmail
Thanks for considering!
Emily
PS If you’re looking for work and would like to add some structure and community, consider taking my four week online, mostly asynchronous course, Your Supported Job Search, offered through CORE. It’s free for members and starts August 4th, 2025.
