We support course-integrated instruction, drop-in workshops, online guides, and individual research. Our work furthers the Library's involvement in curricular initiatives and emphasizes the opportunities associated with undergraduate education. We cultivate liaison relationships with campus partners and academic programs. The Center for Connected Learning (CCL), currently in the design phase, is a hub for undergraduates to engage in multidisciplinary, multimodal inquiry and creation.

A key pedagogical tactic is peer-to-peer learning for undergraduates, and this librarian will participate as a mentor in the Library Undergraduate Fellows program, which gives students training and networking opportunities and helps the Library pilot service models to support emerging scholars. The person in this position will help coordinate the Data Peer Consulting program, a collaborative effort with the Division of Data Science in the CCL; the program is an example of leveraging collaborations with campus partners to offer entry-level research support services.       The UC Berkeley Library is committed to supporting and encouraging a multicultural environment and seeks candidates who can make positive and imaginative contributions in a context of ethnic and cultural diversity.   UC professional librarians are academic appointees and are represented by an exclusive bargaining agent, University Council - American Federation of Teachers (UC-AFT).
