Details:
John Carroll University\'s Grasselli Library and Breen Learning Center seeks an experienced and enthusiastic Librarian for Instruction and Faculty Engagement – Professor of Practice (POP). Unlike tenured faculty who focus on research, the POP focuses on teaching and working with students through a practical, hands-on approach. The successful candidate should have significant experience teaching and instruction in an academic library. POPs are expected to engage in service work for the university and the library.

Reporting to the University Librarian, this position will lead the library\'s teaching and instruction program. This includes responsibilities for designing, developing, delivering, and assessing instruction across the curriculum and the university, focusing specifically on critical thinking, information literacy, and generative AI. Success in this role requires a deep understanding of best practices, current trends, and new technologies in library instruction. This position will also develop and lead library outreach initiatives tailored to faculty and staff.

Applications will be accepted until the position is filled but for priority consideration please submit application by December 1, 2025. The hire start date is Summer 2026. Summer librarianship work is available and includes additional compensation.
