Comment: changed title from Library Guidelines for Recruitment; removed old version, replaced with link to new Hiring Guide

These guidelines are designed to supplement established State, University, and campus policies and procedures governing the recruitment and selection of staff. Specifically, the intent of these guidelines is to clarify the roles to be undertaken by specified Library staff in the recruitment and selection processes so as to ensure timely and correct completion of all steps required by the relevant established policies and procedures.

The Director of the Library is responsible as the "appointing authority for departmental compliance with all applicable policies and procedures. Because the procedures are moderately complicated and the consequences are of utmost importance, it is vital that accuracy, completeness, and probity be maintained consistently. To forward this objective, the Assistant Director for Administrative Services has been assigned principal responsibility for executing or coordinating recruitment and selection procedures in timely and correct fashion. The Assistant Director will maintain complete and official records of the recruitment and selection processes in a secure location within the Administrative Offices.
