The University Library Specialist (ULS) is a core member of the Undergraduate Teaching, Learning, and Outreach team, which supports early-career undergraduate students through in-person and online instruction. The team introduces students to fundamental concepts in information literacy (e.g., recognizing academic information and finding and evaluating sources) and to the Libraries spaces, services, and resources critical to their academic success.

In this role, the ULS delivers in-person instruction and works closely with the Librarian for Undergraduate Teaching & Learning, who manages our in-person information literacy curriculum. This position serves a program coordinator role, communicating with faculty, staff, and constituents; scheduling over 200 library instruction sessions per year; and managing instructional spaces. In addition to teaching, the incumbent collaborates with colleagues in the maintenance and organization of instructional content, spaces, and materials.

The ULS analyzes instructional trends and makes recommendations about program content and resource allocation. The ULS works closely with Libraries colleagues on working groups that advance teaching and learning in the Libraries.
