    The incumbent will establish and continuously improve the research support service model based on current research practices, grounded in student and faculty academic needs, and aligned to Yale Library strategies.

    To enable such work, the Associate Director will develop and maintain strong working relationships with administrators, faculty, and students in these areas, taking initiative to identify and meet their expectations for research programs and services.


    The incumbent will oversee strategy and operations for research and professional support activities related to the Science and Social Science Group and coach the department to navigate changes in the information and research landscape and better meet user needs.

    The Associate Directors will collaborate to set group and programmatic goals, create a budget, and provide input on functional space programming.

    In collaboration with colleagues across Yale University Library, and with campus partners, they will deliver programs and services that enable innovative learning, interdisciplinary scholarship, and advance Yale Library's research and learning program.
