Most library jobs are about maintaining a collection someone else built. This one starts with thousands of research records and a blank catalog. You would design how a Columbia River fish mitigation research library is organized, described, and screened, including the AI-assisted workflow that does the first pass, rather than inheriting someone else's cataloging decisions.

FWI is hiring a Digital Librarian / Metadata Lead to support the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE), Portland District, on its Columbia River Fish Mitigation (CRFM) literature compilation project. You will design and run the intake, indexing, and metadata workflow behind a screened, searchable library of biological and fisheries research, set the standards that keep it consistent, and quality-check the AI tools that speed it up. This is hands-on collection building, and USACE scientists and decision-makers will rely on what you build.

FWI is expanding rapidly and has been recognized as a 2024, 2025 and 2026 Top Workplace, offering excellent growth opportunities in a collaborative environment.
