About the Department: SMU Libraries is an active partner in the intellectual life of the university.

The Duda Family Business Library is deeply integrated into the Cox School of Business and its highly entrepreneurial, data-informed academic environment. Students encounter business research, market and industry information, data and analytics, emerging technologies, and experiential learning throughout their education. The Duda Business Library helps them develop the research abilities, information fluency, and critical judgment they need to succeed at SMU and beyond.

About the Position:
This role is an on-campus, in-person position. The Duda Family Business Library offers an exciting opportunity for an early-career librarian who wants to become an outstanding teacher while developing expertise in business research, entrepreneurship, data, and emerging technologies. The Business Undergraduate Program Librarian plays an important role in the BBA Library Research Program, an established, scaffolded information literacy program embedded in the Cox undergraduate curriculum.

Rather than building an instructional program from the ground up, the librarian will join an experienced team and immediately have opportunities to teach, work with faculty, assess student learning, and help shape the future of a recognized curricular program. Reporting to the Director of the Duda Family Business Library, the Business Undergraduate Librarian works with Cox faculty, Duda Business Library colleagues, and the interdisciplinary SMU Libraries Teaching Team.
