Regent’s Park College (RPC), a Permanent Private Hall of the University of Oxford, has a full-time, grant- funded position for a Cataloguer. RPC has secured funding from the Heritage Lottery Fund (HLF) and the Baptist Union’s Newington Court Fund to deliver an exciting project which will enable The Angus Library and Archive (The Angus) to realise its full potential as a treasure trove of primary sources.

This position will focus on cataloguing the backlog of works in The Angus in collaboration with the Antiquarian Cataloguer, using Aleph, DCRM(B) and RDA cataloguing rules.

Experience and knowledge of cataloguing procedures is essential as well as a keen eye for detail and excellent IT literacy. Knowledge of Latin or Greek or at least one modern European language would be desirable but not essential.
