East Malling Research (EMR) is a science-based
research organisation undertaking work within the
fruit/horticulture/food sector. EMR began in 1913 and has been
responsible for many advances in fruit culture which have been used
extensively
throughout the world. EMR became a commercial organisation in 2003
following independence from the public sector. EMR is enjoying rapid
expansion with new scientists being employed on the site.
To meet the current and future requirements of EMR’s expanding science programmes the organisation needs to undertake
a 6-month library-review project within the communications department.
The aims of the project will be to:
· - Ascertain which existing books and journals held at current EMR Library are required by EMR’s science tea.
· - Investigate which of the required books and journals are available electronically via other sources.
· - Devise and implement a catalogue system for the required books and journals on site.
· - Organise the redistribution, sale or disposal of unwanted library sources.
· - Launch a new EMR Library system for colleagues at the end of the project.
· - Assist members of the communication team during busy periods.
EMR is looking for a suitable candidate to undertake the above project who will have the following
skills and attributes:
· - Working use of English language to B2 or above of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR).
· - Ability to initiate, plan and undertake the project with suitable input and supervision from EMR staff.
· - Knowledge of library systems and web-based information retrieval systems.
· - Ability to work with minimum supervision as well as part of a team during development and implementation stages
of the project.
This is an exciting opportunity for
graduates, or under-graduates close to completing their studies, that
wish to pursue a career in library management and improve their working
knowledge of English. The work environment is informal and pleasant.
EMR hosts a wide range of visiting workers,
post-graduate students and interns. We usually receive 3-6 Leonardo
Interns every year as well as other international students. The six
month project is to begin as early as possible 2014.
EMR
financial assistance includes on site accommodation (worth £85/week) as
well as a small stipend worth £110/month to be paid in cash.
