Opportunity at a Glance
Walden’s Office of Academic Support and Instructional Services (OASIS) provides instruction to help students develop academic and professional skills for success. OASIS houses seven teams: the Walden Library; Content Management; Content Operations; Instructional Services; and Undergraduate, Masters, and Doctoral Academic Support. Following Walden’s Success by Degree framework, we align our instructional support with university-wide, degree-level learning outcomes. Everyone in OASIS collaborates with teams across Walden to ensure we connect students with flexible, seamless instructional support where and when they need it.
Walden has approximately 9000 doctoral students studying in 26 programs. On OASIS’ Doctoral Academic Support team, we provide students with instructional support in line with the university’s doctoral-level competencies and learning outcomes. The Librarian, Doctoral Academic Support plays a pivotal role by serving primarily as a library subject matter expert and providing direct support to doctoral students through synchronous and/or asynchronous environments. The person in this full-time, remote role will be a member of the Doctoral Academic Support team and report to the Lead Librarian of Doctoral Support.
This individual secondarily support library services across OASIS teams. In collaboration with the other OASIS librarians, this role will help support our Ask a Librarian services, which may include email reference, webinars, group advising sessions, and one-on-one appointments for both graduate and undergraduate students. Key traits sought for the person in this role include being curious, creative, flexible, and collaborative. The person in this role will bring heart to their work with students and colleagues.
Responsibilities
- Serve as a subject matter expert in information literacy and library skills on OASIS’ Doctoral Academic Support team.
- Develop expertise in the needs of the students and faculty in Walden’s doctoral programs.
- Participate in providing direct support to doctoral students through synchronous and/or asynchronous environments.

- Support other duties as assigned in line with Walden and OASIS priorities and student needs, which could include a flexible work schedule on evenings and weekends outside of regular business hours
Although Walden librarians are embedded in degree-based teams in OASIS, they also work as a collaborative, transversal library team across OASIS through information sharing, collaboration, and mutual support. The doctoral librarian will support general Walden library functions such as:
