Internet Archive wants book-loving systems engineer
In the spirit of fraternal concern, I post that the Internet Archive is looking for a systems engineer with PHP experience for their book-scanning project. (Also they promised to send us their discards. We need one too.)
The help-wanted has some excellent provisions:

"Not afraid of terabytes" -- I love it!
(I'm staring significant fractions of a petabyte in the eye here at $large_internet_company, so if I had any desire to move I'd be tempted by both of those.)
I guess I should warn that said programmer might end up interacting with me... I'm doing the specs for their MARC import, and that's one of the things that the departing programmer is working on. And it helps to be able to work in a certain amount of chaos, so this isn't your typical library job. ;-)
Are you sure this is the same job? You're doing it for OL, right?
