Cataloger, Cotsen Children’s Library

November 22nd, 2005

Unfortunately, I am one semester shy of being qualified for this position, but I thought that I should share this job announcement–just in case there are any rare book catalogers with an interest in children’s literature among my readers. The Cotsen Children’s Library at Princeton is seeking a three-year project cataloger to complete the cataloging of Cotsen’s pre-20th-century materials. The position requires an MLS, original and complex copy cataloging experience, and reading knowledge of German, Latin, or French. The search committee is reviewing applications now and will continue to accept applications until the position is filled.

The library is also hiring an Education and Outreach Coordinator–perhaps, an ideal position for someone with a background in rare books and children’s literature, public programming, and K-12 education.
