This 4 page CV was submitted by a job hunter who says,
“Hello! I am a recent PhD graduate looking to join the academic library and rare book/special collections field. Most of my CV/resume training and guidance has been geared towards the professor/research field and so I am not sure how to reframe this for library positions! Thank you for your help and insight.”

Guidelines for Conference Reviewers Thank you for volunteering! When you arrive, a NMRT volunteer will be there to greet you. Please try to arrive about 5 minutes before the start of your shift. Due to an increasing response from job seekers in previous years, we try to schedule 2-3 reviewers for each hour slot. Job seekers can see a reviewer immediately, if there is one available, or they can sign up for an appointment.
