Good afternoon all,
I am currently in the very early stages of putting together a staff position at MIT that involves the Cataloging/Metadata of Music materials as one of the core components of this newly created role. I am far from a cataloger, so what I need from you, if willing, is to send along language from previous position descriptions/job postings related to cataloging/music metadata that you might find useful in this process. I’m particularly interested in what you consider to be required vs preferred qualifications for this type of position.
I am working internally in MIT to identify core operating systems/programs that need to be included in this role so rest assured, this is being done with people with far more expertise than I. Thanks for your help! Feel free to write to me directly if needed.
-A
