Overview of ACLS
Formed a century ago, the American Council of Learned Societies (ACLS) is a
nonprofit federation of 78 scholarly organizations. As the leading representative of American scholarship in the humanities and interpretive
social sciences, ACLS upholds the core principle that knowledge is a public good. In supporting its member organizations, ACLS utilizes its
$179 million endowment and $34 million annual operating budget to expand the forms, content, and flow of scholarly knowledge because we
value diversity of identity and experience. We collaborate with institutions, associations, and individuals to strengthen the evolving
infrastructure for scholarship. In all aspects of our work, ACLS is committed to principles and practices in support of racial and social
justice.
ACLS’s strategic
plan outlines four strategic priorities: encouraging scholars and scholarship responsive to diverse audiences; strengthening
relationships among our core constituencies within the academy and our partners beyond the academy; lifting the public profile of humanistic
knowledge; and empowering staff and partners to work responsibly and inclusively.
ACLS is committed to creating an inclusive environment for our employees and embedding attention to equity and inclusion in all our practices. We welcome applications from all individuals with diverse backgrounds, experiences and perspectives, without regard to race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy and gender identity), national origin, political affiliation, sexual orientation, marital status, disability, genetic information, age, parental status, or military service.
