NOTE:  This vacancy was created when my request for a transfer to another
school in the Boise District was approved two days before school started!
Since I am the person vacating the position (which I held for ten years), I
know all about it and would be happy to answer any requests for information.
This library has 36 networked computers, 25 of them in a classroom that is
part of the library.   The network runs Columbia Library System and has full
Internet access.  Later this fall, a CD-ROM tower will be added to the
network, and every classroom in the building is to be networked by the end
of the school year.  The position is described as "terminal" only because it
is district policy to do so whenever positions are filled after August 15.
The person who is hired will have to reapply for the position in the spring,
but would be rehired unless they had proved themselves incompetent.
Incentives:  Boise is often ranked very high on the "Best Places to Live"
lists (people go skiing and mountain biking after work!); the district has a
competitive salary schedule, and excellent benefits.
