The call, published in the BOE of June 8, 2026, activates an application deadline that expires approximately June 29, 2026 (20 calendar days from June 9).

What does this regulation establish?
The Resolution of June 1, 2026 from the USC publishes in the BOE the call for selective tests to fill 6 civil service positions in the Scale of Archives, Libraries and Museums Assistants, in the Library specialty. The positions are classified in the A2 subgroup of the Spanish civil service.
The access mode convened is exclusively open access: there is no reserve for internal promotion or other special access modes. This means that any person who meets the requirements established in the bases can apply on equal terms.

Economic and operational impact
For applicants, accessing a position in subgroup A2 at a public university means job stability as a career civil servant, with the remuneration, allowances and rights inherent to that subgroup in the Galician university system.
For the USC, the incorporation of 6 new civil servants in the Library specialty strengthens the staff of its library services and document management, covering structural needs for qualified personnel.
From an operational perspective, the selection process is entirely governed by the DOG bases: any error in the application or failure to meet requirements may result in exclusion from the process. The 20-day calendar deadline is strict and does not allow late submissions.
Who does it affect?
- People with university degree qualification or equivalent (subgroup A2) interested in accessing civil service positions in university archives and libraries.
- Graduates in Information and Documentation, Library Science, History or other qualifying degrees according to the DOG bases.
- Civil servants from other administrations who wish to apply through open access to the USC (there is no internal promotion access in this call).
- Professionals in the library and archives sector seeking stability in the Galician university civil service.
- Human resources advisors and civil service exam preparers who manage candidates for public sector university positions.
Practical example
A person with a degree in Information and Documentation who currently works as temporary staff in a municipal library in Galicia decides to apply for this call. The steps they must follow are:
- Download and read the complete bases published in the DOG no. 86 of May 11, 2026 to verify that they meet the qualification requirements and other conditions.
- Prepare the required documentation and formalize the application following the procedure indicated in the DOG, within the deadline of 20 calendar days from June 9, 2026 (until approximately June 29, 2026).
- Since it is an open access mode, they do not need to prove seniority or internal promotion requirements: they compete on equal terms with all applicants.
- If they pass the selection process, they access a civil service position in subgroup A2 at the USC, with the stability and rights inherent to that body.
This example illustrates that the process is accessible to any external candidate who meets the requirements, without additional barriers due to reserved access.
