About the Department
The Institute of Classical Studies Library is seeking to appoint a Graduate Library Trainee for the academic year 2025-2026 (August - August). The post is a one-year fixed term training post designed for graduates carrying out a year of work experience and training prior to attending library school.
The Institute of Classical Studies was founded as a post-graduate Institute of the University of London in 1953, and now forms part of the School of Advanced Study; its Library is housed and administered as a single unit with the Joint Library of the Hellenic and Roman Societies (established in 1879 and 1910 respectively).
The Library and Role
Since 1997, the Library has been located in the University's Senate House. The Institute library is responsible for the "primary" collection of reference material, including dictionaries, corpora, excavation reports, standard texts of ancient authors, and certain periodicals, together with specialist electronic resources; the library of the Societies for the "secondary" collection of loanable books and periodicals. The Library's integrated collection now holds over 130,000 monographs and 22,000 bound periodicals, with c.700 current periodical titles, the whole thereby forming an interdisciplinary tool serving all aspects of classical research. For further information, please refer to the Library's website at
The University will be unable to sponsor candidates for a visa for this role. Successful applicants must be able to demonstrate their right to work in the UK for the duration of their employment.
The University of London is committed to promoting a diverse and inclusive working environment where we can all be ourselves and succeed. We particularly encourage applications from members of Black, Asian, and Minority Ethnic communities as this group is currently under-represented at all levels within the University. All appointments will be made on merit, based on the criteria identified in the job description.
