Description

Conservator (14 hours) (March 2024)

  • The National Library of Scotland is one of Scotland's premier cultural institutions.

It contains the nation's memory:

our collections document the influence of Scots at home and abroad across the centuries, while also reflecting the ideas and cultures of the world.

The Library is one of the world's most important cultural banks, comprising books, manuscripts, periodicals, journals, professional archives, music, film and sound and much, much more, including the growing area of digitisation and digital information.

We are now seeking a Conservator to join our Collections Care team.

The purpose of this role is to work at the operational level to support the delivery of the Collections Management department's strategic plans and goals.

They also support the Library's programme of events, exhibitions, and loans, in conjunction with the Conservation Exhibitions Officer and Loans Registrar, and liaison with curators and Public Programming staff.

Applications are encouraged from conservators with a recognised conservation qualification or an equivalent qualification or experience.

Applicants should have at least two years of practical experience since qualifying, including experience of treating books and flat paper items.

They should be accredited or working towards accreditation through Icon's ACR scheme.
