The analysis was conducted using free online job postings from the last five years.
While Sutton’s (2011) and Xu’s (2001) studies focus on gathering the knowledge, skills,
and abilities of systems librarians and analyze how current education meets the
industry’s needs, this study intends to create a list of typical responsibilities of systems
librarians and then determine how the roles of systems librarians are expected to
change as a result of adopting the next generation ILS. The sources compiled are from
online job banks that keep an archive of past job listings, including code4lib jobs, ALA
JobLIST, and various university job listing sites. The content from all sources were
gathered together in a single spreadsheet in order to facilitate its organization and
manipulation. Duplicates and re-posts were removed. The responsibilities and duties
described in each job description were examined for similarities in order to determine a
typical list. Specific responsibilities such as administering an ILS were listed individually,
while more general responsibilities, definitions of which vary from one posting to
another, were grouped together under an appropriate heading. All postings were
examined a second time once all categories had been determined to ensure complete
coverage. Due to the fact that only a few positions for managing the next-generation ILS
are available in the job market, in order to support an in-depth analysis, vendors’ claims
were gathered and grouped from their documents, webinars, product demonstrations,
and RFP responses.
