The Library of Congress is accepting applications from people who wish to be considered for employment at the Library under its Selective Placement Program (SPP). It is the policy of the Library to recruit and hire qualified applicants with targeted disabilities by assisting these individuals in obtaining employment consistent with their level of skills and abilities and their capacity for safe and efficient job performance.  Targeted disabilities include, but are not limited to severe physical, cognitive, or emotional disabilities.  The SPP program is open to applicants who have, or who have  a history of having, a severe disability as listed above.

Applicants with disabilities wishing to be considered for employment at the Library may apply using this announcement and must  (1) have appropriate certification of their disability, (2) show that they have the qualifications for the job, and (3) satisfy the requirements/conditions for employment. By responding to this announcement you are applying to a resume database.  Your resume and any documents submitted will be retained for two years and may be used at any time during that period.  When a position is requested to be filled under the SPP hiring authority, a list of applicants will be provided to management for review and possible selection. 

Additional information on the Library's Selective Placement Program can be found at: https://www.loc.gov/hr/employment/LOCSelectivePlacementProgram.pdf.

Applicants wishing to be considered for employment at the Library through the SPP may also submit an application using the Library's competitive selection process by responding to a specific job opportunity announcement listed on the Library's job opportunity page at http://www.loc.gov/hr/employment/index.php?action=cMain.showJobs.

The salary range indicated reflects the wide range of grades/salaries which may be filled through this process and includes locality pay adjustments for the Washington, D.C., Metropolitan area.  Appointments under this program do not have promotion potential beyond the grade to which the applicant is initially appointed.
