ADKX is currently seeking a Library Director to continue making the institution's research holdings accessible to as wide an audience as possible, both on-site and online.

An undergraduate or graduate degree in American History, American Studies, Environmental History, or a related field is preferred. Applicants must have experience interacting with researchers and be flexible and open to coordinating and completing projects with limited resources.
