What are the responsibilities and job description for the Assistant or Associate Professor position at The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill?
The Division of Information and Library Science (DILS) in UNC-Chapel Hill’s School of Data and Information Sciences (SDIS) invites applications for a 9-month tenure-track Assistant or Associate Professor position focused on the application of automated methods in cultural heritage and memory institutions broadly understood: libraries, archives, or museums, but also centers for data curation, research data management, or digital humanities. Relevant research agendas might include designing benchmarks and evaluation methods that reflect the missions and values of these institutions, investigating the use of open and ethically trained generative models, modeling data for both human and automated use, or grounding agentic workflows in trusted metadata infrastructures. We seek a scholar-practitioner who can combine the craft work of design with the reflexive work of critique. Ideal candidates will have experience with interdisciplinary research and collaboration, passion for libraries, archives, museums, and other cultural heritage and memory institutions, and a vision for centering these institutions in the public discourse about automated systems.
