Description du poste

Hofstra University seeks an innovative and collaborative Metadata Librarian to support the discovery, access, and stewardship of physical and digital resources. In addition to providing expertise in original cataloging and metadata quality and remediation, this position offers an opportunity to expand beyond traditional cataloging to help develop new services in data-related and digital areas of librarianship.
