Student Assistant Position, Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics (CfA), Boston, MA

The CfA Library has an opening for a student assistant. The position will involve a mixture of assisting library staff with day-to-day services like copy cataloging and binding, and exploring new data-centric services. The student will learn methods and technologies used in the research data lifecycle (see http://altbibl.io/dst4l) and apply them to special projects at the CfA Library. Knowing some of these technologies ahead of time is helpful but not necessarily a requirement. Many of our student workers have started at a basic level and are now using these technologies in their work.

The goal is for a student assistant to start as soon as possible and to contribute to the broader goals of the library.
