     LIBRARIAN: Are you a self-starting, people-oriented and 
     technologically adept librarian/cybrarian? Are you very enthused about 
     using the latest library technology but *equally enjoy* assisting 
     library users face-to-face? Would you like to take on the challenge of 
     helping build a state-of-the-art and superb library service? If so, 
     then you might be the right candidate for this position if you have 
     the following required items: an M.L.S. or equivalent degree; 2-4 
     years library experience; experience in OCLC, Dialog and other online 
     services, including Internet searching, and excellent written and 
     verbal communications skills. (Some experience working with government 
     library patrons or a background in law or criminal justice is a plus, 
     but not required.)  The position involves managing a 
     digital/traditional library for a major government agency.  Tasks for 
     this exciting opportunity in Washington, D.C. include providing 
     reference and research, interlibrary loan, collection development, 
     simple cataloging, and online training services, distributing agency 
     publications, supervision of a library assistant, and designing and 
     maintaining library exhibits. Excellent salary and benefits. Send
