Overview

Stony Brook University is seeking a PRODiG+ Fellow in the department of University Libraries / Special Collections and University Archives through the State University of New York (SUNY) Promoting Recruitment, Opportunity, Diversity, Inclusion and Growth Plus (PRODiG+) Postdoctoral Fellowship Program (PRODiG+). PRODiG+ is designed with two primary goals: (1) increasing the number and share of excellent diverse faculty committed to advancing the ideals of diversity, equity, and inclusion; and (2) strengthening the pipeline for retention and support of those faculty. Additional information on the PRODiG+ Fellowship can be found at https://www.suny.edu/prodig-plus/fellowship/.

Role

Curator/Archivist is a postdoctoral PRODiG+ fellow who stewards, processes, and promotes diverse archival and special collections, and participates in instructional programs, collectionsโ€‘based research, and outreach activities. The curator/archivist ensures these collections are preserved, discoverable, and meaningfully integrated into the Universityโ€™s commitment to inclusive teaching practice, innovative research, and community engagement.

Employment Details

The position is a full-time, 12-month, nonโ€‘tenureโ€‘track faculty position at the lecturer level to commence in Fall 2026. The successful candidate will be appointed for 2 years at an annual salary of $80,000 with comprehensive state benefits. The fellow will be a part of a mentored research environment and, with successful performance and demonstrated equitable and inclusive teaching strategies focused on student success, will be invited to join the tenureโ€‘track faculty at Stony Brook University after two years.

Responsibilities

This role involves accessioning, organizing, and describing collection materials; and facilitating access in alignment with professional standards and ADA requirements. The curator/archivist will support the evaluation of materials for potential inclusion in collections or instructional use. The curator/archivist works closely with faculty, students, researchers, and community partners to design and deliver instruction, workshops, and interpretive programs that foster critical engagement with the collections/archives. Through collaboration and outreach, the curator/archivist builds bridges between the Librariesโ€™ holdings and the broader academic and public communities, ensuring these resources remain vibrant, accessible, and relevant for future generations.

Appointment
