The Kaitakawaenga Liaison Librarian role, most recently held by Aurelia, will be moved from the Academic Liaison Team structure into the Macmillan Brown Library Team.
This change is intended to achieve improvements for Maori specialist staff in the library and to support development to meet demand for specialist Maori knowledge and services. The role will retain the focus on service to the College of Education, Health and Human Development. The Kaitakawaenga will work regular hours in the Education Library and will work closely with Education subject librarians.
Thanks to Nekerangi, Caroline, Kathryn and Kim who have willingly picked up extra work while this position has been vacant. The recruitment process has been initiated and the role will be advertised soon.
Thanks to everyone who has informed this process –
