About the job
The ICRC Library holds unique collections on the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the International Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, and international humanitarian law (IHL). It serves as an internal resource for all ICRC staff to help them find and access the literature they need. The Library also welcomes external researchers and practitioners interested in IHL and the ICRC’s work throughout the years. Its online catalogue is the gateway to the most recent scholarship on the subject, documents of diplomatic and international conferences, all ICRC publications, and heritage collections documenting the early development of international humanitarian law and action.
The ICRC Library and Archives are currently rolling out an ambitious programme to enable global digital access to their collections and the long-term preservation of digital materials.
Under the supervision of the ICRC librarians, the associate in the ICRC Library will support the Library’s mission and take part in collections management, outreach, and reader services activities.
