Director, Smithsonian Institution Archives (SIA)
Smithsonian Institution
The Director of the Smithsonian Institution Archives is the Archivist of
the Smithsonian and the senior archivist of the Institution. The
successful candidate will be an experienced professional with a record
of innovative leadership of archival programs, excellent communications
and management skills, and knowledge of recent developments in archival
preservation and information technologies. The Director leads an
experienced staff of twenty that develops and implements
Institution-wide policies and standards for records management and
institutional history, operates a conservation laboratory, and develops
the electronic records program. The Director coordinates policies for
the management of the Smithsonian's vast archival collections and is the
leader and spokesperson for the Smithsonian archival community to both
internal and external audiences. Ongoing initiatives include a
leadership role in the management of the Institution's digital assets
and the expansion of its electronic records program, a collaborative
project to develop digital archives guidance for small and medium-size
organizations, and continuing the development of the conservation
