Freelance librarian/OCLC search expert w/ mad Endnote skills
May 15, 2007 1:00 PM
Sorry to be vague with the job title and the description, but we are looking for someone with excellent OCLC search skills (librarian-level) who is also fluent in EndNote to help compile the "recently-published works" section of a major academic publication. (Again, sorry to be vague; consider this an unofficial, but legitimate, job posting.)
You would need to live in the DC area to take this position, which entails performing a series of searches in OCLC FirstSearch and then massaging the results into an acceptable format for publication. These searches are performed about four times a year. Basic knowledge of European languages (German, French, Italian, Polish) would be a big plus. You don't have to be fluent, just as long as you understand the difference between an umlaut and an accent grave. Publications experience also a plus.
Please contact me at rcoleman@ushmm.org about this position. I'm not the person making the decision, but I can give you more info about it before forwarding on your resume.
payscale: $25-30/hour
job type: part-time
