?<\/p>\n
The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is currently seeking applicants for part time processing<\/b> internship positions in our Archives Processing and Digitization Unit. Interns will participate in a wide variety of projects under the direction of professional archivists. Students have the opportunity to gain career-relevant archival experience in a Presidential Library while contributing to the work of the institution.<\/p>\n
After orientation with institutional processing procedures, and under close supervision, archival interns will have the opportunity to arrange, describe, re-house, and preserve archival materials within the Library’s collections. Interns will be expected to work both independently as well as in teams with other graduate-level interns. In addition, interns may expect to learn about other levels of archival description including basic intellectual control and inventory and transfer of non-textual materials to appropriate departments, as well as exposure to the Library’s new digital initiative.<\/p>\n
Candidates must be currently enrolled in a graduate program in archival studies or public history. Previous experience processing archival materials is preferred. Interns will receive a monthly stipend of $560 (2 days\/week), paid on the 15th<\/sup> of the month. The estimated start date for Winter\/Spring internships is December 15th<\/sup>, with an end date of May 14th<\/sup>; renewals for the summer semester (May 15th<\/sup> to August 14th<\/sup>) are possible.<\/p>\n ?<\/p>\n For more information about the John F.
