We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings

for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections that have real specific content. The posting includes: About Us (but we should not repeat job title as heading; we can have About the role? Actually "About Us" is about the university, not the role. The instruction: use

for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we should map content to these headings where appropriate. The posting includes: About Us (university description) - could be considered "About the role"? Not exactly. But we could treat "About Us" as "About the role"? Might be okay. However they said do NOT repeat the job title as a heading (the page already shows it) and do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short

or drop it. So we can have a heading "About the role" containing the About Us paragraph? That seems odd but maybe they want that heading for general description. Alternatively we could skip About the role if not specific to role. But they said prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We have Responsibilities (detailed list). Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications could be under Requirements and Qualifications. Skills could be under Skills (maybe from Preferred Qualifications). Benefits, Pay, Schedule: not present (no mention of salary, benefits, schedule). So we should not include those sections. We need to preserve all substantive information: location, department info, job summary, responsibilities, required qualifications, preferred qualifications, required documents, apply before date, contact information. Also maybe include "Location" as part of a short paragraph under About the role? Could be separate section? There's no heading for Location in the list; we could fold into a paragraph under About the role or maybe under Responsibilities? Better to include a short paragraph after About the role heading containing location and department info. We must not include boilerplate: EEO, background check, etc. Remove those. We must not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep the exact details. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's craft:

Responsibilities

  • Lead the effective and efficient operation of Resource Strategy and Management for the University Libraries on both the Kennesaw and Marietta campuses.
  • Directly supervise and manage unit employees including hiring, training, mentoring, establishing workloads, setting expectations, and completing reviews.
  • Create, review, and update policies, procedures, and workflows for the unit.

  • Engage in service to the University Libraries, the campus, or the profession.
  • Contribute to the development of the library profession and/or subject-specific discipline through scholarship, presentations, and publications.
  • Because our libraries are open 7 days a week and, in the evenings, the position will occasionally be required to work during these times to serve the needs of the students.
  • This position will work on both the Kennesaw and Marietta campuses.
Then Requirements (Required Qualifications) and Qualifications (Preferred Qualifications) maybe separate sections: Requirements and Qualifications. We need to use

for section headings: Requirements, Qualifications, Skills. We have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could map Required Qualifications to Requirements, Preferred Qualifications to Qualifications (or Skills). But we also have skills like presentation, interpersonal, etc. Those could go under Skills. Let's do:

Requirements

  • Terminal degree, or the foreign equivalent, appropriate to a contemporary research-intensive library, such as an MLIS, or other related equivalent terminal degree, or the foreign equivalent.
  • 3 years or more of supervisory experience
  • 5 years or more of experience as a librarian in an academic library

Qualifications

  • Excellent presentation, interpersonal, oral, and written communication skills
  • Experience in collection development, acquisitions, library systems, or library technical services
  • Project management experience
  • Experience working in a consortia environment with a shared ILS
We could also have Skills section but we already covered skills in Qualifications. Might be redundant. Better to keep Qualifications as preferred qualifications and maybe Skills separate? But we have no separate skills list beyond those. Could combine. We also need to include Required Documents to Attach, Apply Before Date, Contact Information. Where to place? Could be under a section like "Application Details" but not in allowed headings. We could fold into a paragraph under Qualifications or after. Since we must preserve all substantive info, we can add a

after Qualifications containing that info. We must not include boilerplate like EEO, background check, etc. So we omit those. Let's craft final HTML:
