[InetBib] Stellenausschreibung Professorship at Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin

[Matthias Schulz <matthias.schulz.1@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

We have a new professorship available at the Institute for Library and 
Information Sciences at Humboldt University in Berlin. I am sending a 
link to the description in Die Zeit for anyone who might be interested. 
Please feel free to circulate this notice to others.

Note that the professorship has a 5 year contract term. This is because 
we are funding it through the distance education program, which must be 
renewed every five years. A renewal after 5 years is not guaranteed, but 
neither is it impossible. One of the expectations is that the person in 
this position takes on some responsibility for our distance education 
program. That means some but by no means exclusive teaching in the 
program, and some but hopefully not too onerous administrative duties. 
It is otherwise a normal German professorship with teaching and research 
expectations. The ability to teach in German is important.

A PhD is absolutely required. A Habilitation is not required as long as 
the candidate has a reasonable publication record.

I will be at ALA for those who want to ask specific questions. I am 
available on email too, of course.
