Cataloguer (4 month contract)
IISD Research Library
Application deadline: April 23, 2010

The International Institute for Sustainable Development Research Library (ic.iisd.org) manages both a print and electronic collection, which is accessed through the library on-line database - SD-Cite ( sd-cite.iisd.org ). This database of over 45,000 records was recently converted into Koha software, resulting in the need to clean-up many records.

We are looking for a qualified librarian or library technician to identify and change these records. You will need to work independently and will report to IISD's cataloguer.

Contract length: 4 months
Rate of pay: $15.00 - $18.00 per hour depending on qualifications

Qualifications
- Master of Library Science or Library Technician diploma
- Familiarity with MARC records and ability to do MARC cataloguing
- Familiarity with integrated library software
- Ability to work accurately and independently

The IISD Research library, located at IISD's headquarters in Winnipeg and on the World Wide Web, provides services to all IISD offices, employees and associates regardless of location.
