The Classical Association of the Atlantic States is seeking applications for the position of Webmaster to commence immediately after the October 2026 CAAS annual meeting and to run through the end of the October 2029 annual meeting. The position may be renewed for more than one three-year term and carries an annual stipend. The applicant must live or work in the CAAS region (Delaware, the District of Columbia, Maryland, New Jersey, New York, and Pennsylvania). CAAS membership is required for the position.
The Webmaster serves on the CAAS Board of Directors. The general responsibilities of the position include maintaining a standards-compliant website for CAAS, posting information on the website, providing timely updates to it, and managing all on-line functions associated with the website. Specific duties include managing interactions with CAAS’ website builders and providers, working with the Program Coordinator to facilitate the use of EasyChair to evaluate abstracts and proposals for the annual meeting, managing officer-specific email addresses and Google Drive, handling all web-related functions for the annual meeting, and preparing a contact list of presenters at the annual meeting for the Program Coordinator. The Webmaster assembles a list of audio-visual equipment requested for each presentation at the Annual Meeting for the Executive Director.
The Webmaster is also responsible for correcting the Program of the annual meeting to reflect how it actually occurred (presenters who did not attend, papers read by another, etc.), posting this on the website, and forwarding a copy to the Archivist. A more detailed description of the Webmaster’s responsibilities can be found in the CAAS Regulations and Operating Procedures (https://caas-cw.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/03/Regulations-and-Operating-Procedures-Oct-2018.pdf).
Applicants should have a record of participation in CAAS programs and be familiar with HTML and web-content management, web-conferencing tools, web maintenance, and internet data security. Knowledge of EasyChair would be a plus. Applications should include a letter of interest, a current curriculum vita, and the names and contact information of three individuals who can serve as references. Please send applications to Karen Klaiber Hersch, Chair of the Nominations Committee (karen.klaiber@temple.edu), by May 15, 2026.
