  • Partner with Legal, Procurement, IT, and vendors to identify requirements, support licensing compliance, and inform contract and negotiation strategy.
  • Train and enable technical users through documentation, guidance, and outreach; serve as the go-to expert on available information tools as they evolve.
  • Evaluate AI-enabled research tools and emerging technologies; provide recommendations on responsible adoption and licensing implications.
  • Manage the physical research library collection, rare and out-of-print publications, and lab notebook archive.

 

 

Required Qualifications

  • MLIS, MLS, or advanced degree in library/information science, information management, or a relevant STEM field
  • 4+ years of experience in a corporate library, special library, scientific information center, technical information services, or electronic resource management role

  • Proficiency with Microsoft 365 and standard business tools

 

 

Desired Qualifications

  • Experience administering subscriptions, renewals, and license terms for journals, databases, patents, or specialized technical content
  • Experience supporting R&D, engineering, manufacturing, regulatory, or technical operations teams
  • Experience with Electronic Resource Management (ERM) tools, link resolvers, discovery services, authentication systems, or usage analytics
  • Understanding of licensing considerations related to internal sharing, reuse, text/data mining, and AI-enabled use of scientific content
  • Experience designing training, documentation, and outreach programs for technical user populations
