The School of Library, Archival and Information Studies at the University of British Columbia is accepting applications for the Dodson Visiting Professor of Archival Studies

Deadline: March 1, 2014

The University of British Columbia holds an international reputation for excellence in advanced research and learning. It is located in Vancouver, Canada, one of the world's most beautiful and culturally diverse cities.

The School of Library, Archival and Information Studies (SLAIS), the iSchool at UBC, is pleased to invite applications for the Dodson Visiting Professorship named in honour of Suzanne and Earl Dodson.

This is a competitive position that provides funds to enable the successful candidate to spend an extended period of time, normally an academic term, engaged in research and teaching with the iSchool and UBC Community. Academics at all levels from all countries are encouraged to apply. Applicants will normally hold a doctoral degree, and currently be employed in an institution of higher education.

This year's call is for a Visiting Professor in Archival Studies, who will bring expertise and an active record of scholarship in archival studies, intended as a broad area of research covering all different aspects related to creation, management and preservation of documents. Preference will be given to candidates who have a proven track record of high quality research and experience in teaching and mentorship. This is an opportunity to work with well-known senior scholars at the iSchool as well as an outstanding group of junior faculty members active in areas such as digital diplomatics, digital records forensics, records management, visual analytics, and information risk management. While all applications will be considered, preference will be given to candidates whose research interests align with those of one or more faculty members within the iSchool.

This Visiting Professorship offers the opportunity to interact with the talented and engaged students in the MAS Program by teaching up to two courses. The Professor will be fully integrated into the research culture at the iSchool and will be expected to attend research talks and events, interact with doctoral students and present his or her research at a colloquium, open to members of the iSchool and the community.

The Dodson Visiting Professorship funds this position for one term in the amount of $15,000, which can be supplemented through teaching (up to two 3-credit courses) to reach $30,000.
