This position is dual posted at Librarian 1 and 2.

The Stanford Libraries seeks a collaborative, dynamic, and innovative Mathematics, Statistics and Computational Sciences Librarian to provide outstanding research, instruction, and collection services to the Departments of Mathematics and Statistics, and the broader Computational Sciences community at Stanford, including faculty and students in the Stanford Institute for Computational and Mathematical Engineering, Stanford Data Science, and an array of related departments and programs. The Libraries' values are rooted in a commitment of mutual respect, the idea that every member of the staff has something to contribute, and that learning is constant. We seek a team member who is ready to share their skills and perspectives in a highly collaborative environment. We value colleagues who perform effectively in and contribute successfully to a diverse, multicultural workplace environment.

About Stanford Libraries:

Stanford Libraries is a network of over 15 libraries with over 350 employees. We are committed to fueling the teaching, learning and research across Stanford by acquiring, stewarding, and making available a robust collection, currently in excess of 12 million items. Everyone in the organization plays a vital role in fulfilling that objective. Our dedication to discoverability and information management also has us engaged in dynamic global partnerships. We are constantly building and strengthening our organization, and we recognize striving for excellence is a marathon and not a sprint. We are constantly trying to strike the right pace, and admit there are times when we find ourselves at a fast jog. While we hope to always find candidates who fit within our organization, what we truly seek is someone who will add to our culture, our profession as well as the greater academic arena. We are invested in the success of our teams and the individuals who represent Stanford Libraries.

About the Position:

The Mathematics, Statistics and Computational Sciences Librarian will join the Biology Librarian, Chemistry and Chemical Engineering Librarian, and Physics Librarian in the Robin Li & Melissa Ma Science Library. As a member of an interdisciplinary team of science and engineering librarians in the Science and Engineering Resource Group, the Mathematics, Statistics, and Computational Sciences Librarian will provide direct support in the use of library materials, scholarly communication practices, and will play an active role in supporting the research lifecycle of data in their assigned disciplines.

Mathematics, Statistics, and Computational Sciences are foundational to data science. The Librarian in this role will work closely with exceptional service-oriented colleagues from across the research spectrum to support the multi-disciplinary research areas of Stanford's Mathematics and Statistics Departments. As faculty and students explore questions that cross traditional disciplinary boundaries, overlapping subject areas range from biostatistics and astrophysics to econometrics and public health, from linguistics and symbolic systems to finance and business. An exciting new opportunity for the Mathematics, Statistics and Computational Sciences Librarian will be to engage with faculty and students based in the new Stanford Data Science and Computation Complex, now under construction and located adjacent to the Sapp Center for Science Teaching and Learning, home of the Li & Ma Science Library. The new complex will house Stanford Data Science, the undergraduate programs for Computer Science, Mathematical & Computational Sciences, and Symbolic Systems, and the Stanford Impact Labs, providing an interdisciplinary environment to apply data science and computation for a real world impact.
