St John’s College, one of the largest Colleges within the University of Cambridge, is seeking to appoint a Special Collections Librarian.
The Library’s operations are underpinned by the College’s core vision and values: to deliver an outstanding and complete educational experience for undergraduates and graduates, to support research of international importance, and to introduce undergraduates to the nature and excitement of original research. The Library’s work covers three distinct areas: The Working Library, The Old Library and the Archive Centre.
Whilst the Working Library primarily serves the members of the College, special collections and archives are consulted by scholars from around the world. All three areas of the department’s operations have been awarded some form of national accreditation.
The College offers a competitive benefits package including membership of a defined contributory pension scheme, 36 days’ annual leave (inclusive of Bank Holidays), access to a private healthcare scheme currently provided by BUPA, access to a ‘cash plan’ healthcare scheme currently provided by Simplyhealth, free lunch (up to a specified monetary limit), free use of an on-site Gym and free parking close to the College site, subject to availability.
The closing date for the receipt of completed applications is 9.00am on Monday 14 April 2025. Interviews are expected to be held in early May 2025.
