From bcnewell at uw.edu Tue Nov 1 10:47:04 2016 From: bcnewell at uw.edu (Bryce C Newell) Date: Tue, 1 Nov 2016 15:47:04 +0100 Subject: [Sigifp-l] Post-Doc opportunity in Information Studies at TILT Message-ID: Hi all, I am on the search committee for a full-time *Post-Doctoral Researcher in* *Information Studies* here at TILT (Tilburg Institute for Law, Technology and Society), at Tilburg University in the Netherlands (www.tilt.nl). Please consider applying (if relevant) or forwarding the job advertisement to your advanced PhD students, recent graduates, or colleagues. Note that this job is intended for an iSchool-type, not necessarily someone with a law background, even though the department is in a law school (in fact, we have a number of non-law(yer) types here, including sociologists and STS scholars). The ideal candidate will have demonstrable interests in privacy, qualitative and/or quantitative empirical methods, and an interest in multidisciplinary collaboration. The working language of our department is English. *Applications are due Dec. 5, 2016.* The job posting is here: https://career012.successfactors.eu/career?career_ns=job_listing&company=S003974031P&navBarLevel=JOB_SEARCH&rcm_site_locale=en_US&career_job_req_id=7182&selected_lang=en_US&jobAlertController_jobAlertId=&jobAlertController_jobAlertName=&_s.crb=Y%2bF8G2WLVhQMLmDw2nxfQPQAXg4%3d (also accessible from the university's home page: www.tilburguniversity.edu ). My colleague, Dr. Nadya Purtova, who is leading the large grant-funded project is great, and I have many nice things to say about the other folks here at TILT as well. I am also happy to field questions about the position, the department, the university, or about living in the Netherlands (I have been here for about 16.5 months now). The hired post doc must either have a PhD in hand or have their final defense *scheduled* when they start (ideally between March 1 and May 1, 2017). They will work with Dr. Purtova, another post doc focused on economics, and a couple of PhD students. Please share as you see appropriate, and let me know if you have questions. (and apologies for the spam!)

Wiegand discovers people love their public libraries for three main reasons: access to practical information; the library as a place; and the transformative potential commonplace stories have for library readers. Because conventional LIS research and education mostly focus on the first, and largely overlook and undervalue the last two, he argues that by not having core courses in "reading and libraries" and "library as place" in American Library Association-accredited programs, and by not conducting much more research on the effects of both, LIS research and education fall short of the profession's needs. Come and join ASIS&T and Dr. Wiegand for what will be a riveting discussion. As a primer, this fascinating article will get you thinking about the salient attributes public libraries provide, not only for information studies, but sociologically and politically as well [more (http://asist.us12.list-manage.com/track/click?u=de58424ef2e609298efbb4a00&id=5654342618&e=6c804efb41) ].
