Hello all,

I am a new member of this list so please excuse me if this topic has been covered before.   I have searched the archives a bit, but did not seem to hit on the type of information we desire.  I will sum responses and post back to the list.  

I am a member my library's web steering committee.  We are writing a proposal to our administration suggesting the hiring of a half or full time webmaster for our site.  We feel we need someone to control day-to-day operations, assist departmental websters in the creation and updating of pages, gather statistics, etc.  We are a Research II, Doctoral granting institution, of approximately 24,000 students.  I would like to hear from other similar institutions that have permanent employees with the above listed tasks as the main focus of their job descriptions.  Please include the level of the position (professional, library degree or not, etc.), % of job duties assigned to web duties, typical duties included in the job description and anything else any one wants to add.  We are open to suggestions/questions.  

Thank you for your time.

Patti
