Re: [LIS-Forum] VACANCY ANNOUNCEMENT (Max Mueller Bhavan)
by Seth, Renu 20 Mar '07

Dear Aprajita, You have a valid question but our requirements are a bit different, hence we have to choose between someone knowing German or having the subject qualifications. The Reference Librarian working in Max Mueller Bhavan will be mainly responsible for providing information about Germany, its culture etc. and to be able to do that, it is very important that he/she has German language expertise and knows Germany reasonably well. The reason being, most of the German reference books, websites as well as other sources of information, which such a person would use are in German language. A library science professional will need min. two to three years time to pick up the kind of language expertise we need for this job and given a choice, we would not want to wait that long to start providing effective information services. An ideal combination for us would be a librarian knowing German Language but unfortunately, so far we have not been successful in finding such a person. Library Science professionals are most welcome to apply (this was also the reason for posting it on LIS-Forum) but as written in the job-posting, first preference would be given to candidates well versed with German Language and Culture.
