Looking for a new career in literacy education? Got a position to post? The International Reading Association's new online Career Center makes it easy to find or post jobs, and the service is free to job seekers.

Advertisers can post jobs related to literacy education at a cost of only US$150 per job per month. It's a self-service operation; once advertisers have paid for their ad, they can create it online using the easy-to-follow instructions provided. When finished, they can immediately post their ad.

The Career Center is designed to assist visitors in their search for new opportunities in literacy education. Postings will fall into one of five main categories:

• pre-K-12 classroom

• college/university faculty

• administrative

• IRA positions

• other

Job seekers respond directly to the advertisers. Listings within any given category in the Career Center will be searchable by category, location, level, and date posted. From there, job seekers can search by keywords. New listings will be highlighted to make them easily identifiable.

You can visit the new Career Center on the IRA website under Web Resources, or go to www.reading.org/resources/jobs. As this issue of Reading Today went to press, the Career Center was scheduled to go live on October 17, 2005. For further information, contact Steve Davis in the Marketing Division at 302-731-1600, ext. 417, or send an e-mail to careercenter@reading.org.
