Information and discussion on all aspects of British photographic history
Dear colleagues, friends and prospective applicants,
I’m writing to let you know of two posts which have now been formally advertised by the University for roles within the Department of Special Collections of the University of St Andrews Library in Scotland.
Each post would consist of a four year contract working with the Lawrence Levy Golf Photography Collection which is comprised of over 200,000 35mm slides on the subject of golf from 1978 to 1994. Each post is quite different in nature and grade. The first is a cataloguing and curatorial post focused on access, interpretation and exhibition (expertise in Golf history is essential), whereas the second post is based on scanning, physical preservation, and creating skeleton records in preparation for the Curator.
For complete details about each of these posts please see the following links to the official advertisements on our university’s HR site.
Photographic Golf Collection Project Curator - JC1049
Photographic Golf Collection Digitisation Officer - SB1059
All applicants must be currently eligible to work and live in the UK.
Best wishes to all,
Marc Boulay
