Associate University Archivist for Content Management and Access, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA

Posted February 25, 2025

Description

Reporting to the University Archivist (UA) and working in close coordination with the Harvard University Archives (HUA) leadership team, the Associate University Archivist for Content Management and Access (AUACMA) will help create a strategic vision and provide leadership in the large scale and enterprise-wide transition from a paper-based to digital-first orientation for proper management and stewardship of Harvard’s institutional records and related content.

Working closely with the University Archivist, the Associate University Archivist for Content Management and Access (AUACMA) will lead the development and implementation of a digital-first program for permanent and historically significant University content and related materials. The AUACMA will work with a variety of University stakeholders in University administration, Information Technology, and the Harvard Library to develop and implement a unified program of policies, pathways and workflows to support intake and preliminary assessment of both digitized analog content and born digital materials transferred to the Harvard University Archives from University entities or acquired from external sources.

The AUACMA will work toward the improvement of functions of the Harvard Library and University recordkeeping systems, particularly in accommodating necessary requirements for handling and providing mediated access to confidential, high-risk, and sensitive information in University records, personal archives, organizational records and other content with the goal of balancing the needs of University administrative research, business continuity, legal compliance, with those of faculty, students, and researchers using the Archives for scholarship and research.
