Subject: Position Opening:  Head of Technical Services

The Head of Technical Services at the Cleveland Public Library is
 scheduled to retire soon. The position will be posted in the January 7
 and 14, 2002 LJ Hot Line and a very few other places.
 Since the application deadline is January 21, I am posting a brief
 description of the position. This is one of 11 top administrators at
CPL.
The Head of Tech. Services  supervises Preservation, Cataloging,
Acquisitions, Processing, and  Shipping and supervises 70 highly
unionized staff.  CPL is currently a DRA library but will probably
have to shift to  another system; therefore, the Head of Tech. Services
should have some  systems background.
 Qualifications include an MLS and 5-6 years management-level work.
 SALARY RANGE: $93,555 to $130,474. Appointment will be made at the
 beginning salary range with ca.5% annual raises. The Head of Tech.
 Services is in charge of the Library's Lakeshore facility, where the
 technical operations (except automation) are housed.

 CPL has over 2 million volumes and a world-class Special Collections.
 The collections documenting the history of world art and the special
architecture holdings are noteworthy. This is a great opportunity for
someone who would like to make a  positive impact in the world
of public and research libraries. There are few such opportunities
available.

 Cost of living in Cleveland is rather low, so the high salary is really

 extraordinary.

 Application requires only a resume and the names of at least three
 references.

 Applications can be sent to Sharon Tufts, Head, Human Resources,
 Cleveland Public LIbrary, 325 Superior Avenue, Cleveland, Ohio 44114.

 Please let qualified applicants know of this opportunity.
