NC State University Libraries · Raleigh, NC · 1 mo ago
Full-time
We need to output HTML fragment with sections: About the role? The posting includes intro paragraphs about libraries, then "Responsibilities", then "Required Qualifications", then "Preferred Qualifications". Also mention "This position is based in North Carolina. This position is eligible for flexible hours with a hybrid work environment and will require occasional onsite work." That could be under a "Schedule" or "Work Arrangement" but we only have headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include sections only when posting has real specific content. We have Responsibilities content. Required Qualifications content. Preferred Qualifications content. Also maybe "About the role" could be the introductory description before Responsibilities. That seems appropriate: a summary of the role and context. Use

About the role

with paragraphs. We should not repeat job title as heading. No Job ID. No boilerplate. Remove EEO etc. Not present. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. The responsibilities are a paragraph with multiple sentences; could be turned into list? The instruction: Use
    • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

      for prose. The responsibilities section contains multiple duties; could be formatted as list. Better to use

      • for each duty. Similarly qualifications can be list. We need to preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to capture each duty sentence as list item. Let's extract responsibilities sentences: - The Systems Librarian provides primary administration and project management for the Libraries’ Ex Libris Alma platform and public-facing Primo discovery layer. - The position facilitates collaborative decision-making for these discovery tools, including chairing the Libraries’ Alma Product Team and working with all library services platform teams to align system policies with user and departmental needs. - The position translates complex technical developments into clear, functional workflows for colleagues, helping to optimize processes across functional areas, including fulfillment, acquisitions, resource management, resource sharing, and user experience. - They partner with other stakeholders to manage the Alma platform’s lifecycle, including monitoring software release schedules, assessing their impacts on library operations, utilizing analytics to generate reports for data-informed decision-making, implementing configuration updates, maintaining technical documentation, and providing functional support for library staff. - The position acts as a primary technical liaison with Ex Libris and participates actively in professional communities such as ELUNA, the UNC System, and the Triangle Research Libraries Network (TRLN). - They actively explore emerging services and technologies, including AI-driven improvements to library search, discovery, and internal workflows, working to enhance the library user experience. - The position deeply considers how their approach to their daily work reflects and advances the Libraries’ Strategic Plan, creating an environment and community that is welcoming for both patrons and colleagues alike. - The position works closely with colleagues throughout the Libraries and with university partners, participates in library planning, and serves on library and campus-wide committees, task forces, and teams. - Librarians are expected to be active professionally and to contribute to developments in the field. - The position reports to the Discovery Systems Manager in Digital Library Initiatives. - This position is based in North Carolina. This position is eligible for flexible hours with a hybrid work environment and will require occasional onsite work. We could treat the last two sentences as part of responsibilities or maybe separate "Schedule" section. But we have a Schedule heading possible. The posting mentions flexible hours, hybrid work, occasional onsite work. That's schedule info. So we could create a Schedule section with that content. However the instruction: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text. The schedule content is specific: flexible hours, hybrid work, occasional onsite work. So we can include a Schedule section. Similarly, Benefits? Not mentioned. Pay? Not mentioned. Skills? Could be covered under qualifications. We have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. Could combine into Qualifications section with sub-sections? But headings allowed: Qualifications. Could have Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications as subheadings? Not allowed; only the listed headings. We could put all qualifications under Qualifications heading, using
        • for each. But we need to preserve distinction between required and preferred? The instruction: preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. If we merge required and preferred, we lose that distinction. However we could still preserve by noting within list items that they are required or preferred. That's okay. Thus we can have a Qualifications section with two sub-lists? But we cannot add extra headings beyond the allowed ones. Could we use

          to note "Required Qualifications:" then list? That's acceptable as prose. The instruction: Use

          • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and

            for prose. So we can have a

            stating "Required Qualifications:" then a

            • for each required qualification. Then another

              for "Preferred Qualifications:" then list. Similarly for Responsibilities we can have a

              intro then list. About the role: we can have a

              summarizing the introductory paragraphs. Let's craft About the role paragraph(s): combine the initial description about libraries and the position. Intro: "Join the NC State University Libraries and help us create adventurous, innovative services and library spaces that delight students, faculty, and researchers. The award-winning James B. Hunt Jr. Library on NC State’s Centennial Campus, offers access to advanced technologies that are enabling revolutionary ways to see and use information. Capturing NC State’s spirit of innovation in education and research, the Hunt Library is recognized as one of the world’s most creative and inspirational learning and collaborative spaces and a model for “the library of the future.” The D. H. Hill Jr. Library, serving the main campus, combines the best of tradition and innovation, housing special collections and a beautiful gallery alongside vibrant, experiential spaces for making, digital media creation, data analysis and visualization, and collaboration. Three branch libraries focus on design, natural resources, and veterinary medicine. The NC State University Libraries invites applications and nominations for the position of Systems Librarian in the Digital Library Initiatives department. The Digital Library Initiatives (DLI) department applies systems analysis, design, service development, and software development skills to the creation and improvement of a broad range of library products and services. As a collaborative and consultative partner, DLI works with stakeholders across the Libraries and university to bring new services to life and solve complex technical challenges. DLI develops and supports the core systems that provide access to the Libraries’ print and electronic resources, including Ex Libris Alma, the Primo discovery layer, ILLiad, and EZproxy. The department maintains a broad portfolio of prototype and production systems and services in areas including digital collections, high-technology spaces, researcher profiles and identifiers, exploratory applications of machine learning and AI, and assessment and analytics. DLI develops new research infrastructure support services focused on improving the efficiency and productivity of NC State researchers in collaboration with university partners including the Office of Information Technology (OIT) and the Office of Research and Innovation (ORI). Staff develop and support open source and locally developed applications that promote resource discovery and delivery, enable use of Libraries spaces, and improve staff workflows. For examples of the department’s projects and initiatives, visit: https://www.lib.ncsu.edu/dli/projects" That's a lot but we need to preserve all substantive information. Could be multiple paragraphs. Use

              for prose; we can break into multiple

              tags. Now Responsibilities: we can have a

              "Responsibilities:" then

              • each duty. Qualifications: we can have

                "Required Qualifications:" then

                • each required qualification. Then

                  "Preferred Qualifications:" then

                  • each preferred qualification. Schedule: we have the sentences about location and flexible hours. Could be a

                    under Schedule heading. We must not include any boilerplate like EEO etc. Not present. Now ensure we don't repeat job title as heading. Not. Now output only HTML fragment. Let's list required qualifications from text: - ALA-accredited MLS, MIS, or equivalent advanced degree, such as in Computer Science or Information Technology - Demonstrated experience providing support or administration for an integrated library system (e.g., Alma, Sierra) - Ability to manage multiple projects from planning to completion, including coordinating with cross-departmental collaborators, facilitating meetings, and maintaining project documentation - Experience diagnosing and resolving complex technical issues involving library software, data integrity, system performance, and user experience - Ability to foster an environment of belonging and well-being - Ability to communicate clearly and knowledgeably across audiences with varied technical backgrounds - Ability to work independently, creatively, and collaboratively in a team environment, including with colleagues across multiple functional specialties. - Evidence of ability for ongoing professional development and contribution Preferred qualifications: - Experience with Ex Libris Alma and Primo and related ExLibris products (e.g., Rapido, Leganto) - Experience with languages such as Python, SQL and with the Linux command line to automate routine tasks and create custom integrations via APIs - Experience serving as a lead technical liaison with product vendors Now schedule info: - This position is based in North Carolina. - This position is eligible for flexible hours with a hybrid work environment and will require occasional onsite work. We could combine into one paragraph. Now produce HTML. Let's craft:
