Re: jobs



Jamie-

There are numerous internship opportunities, both paid
and unpaid, for entry-level archivists and training
archivists. If you're in for the short term (i.e.
summer work, or seasonal work) and willing to travel
try the Yale Libraries Internship Program, the Junior
Fellows Program at the Library of Congress, the
numerous programs both stipended and un at the
Smithsonian Institution and the National Archives and
Records Administration in Washington, D.C., the
Simmons Internship Program at the Henry Ford Museum
and Greenfield Village, or a position at one of the
museums in NYC (Metropolitan Museum of Art and Museum
of Modern Art, etc.) These all have excellent
reputations for educating young and entry-level
archivists, but they are also extremely competitive.
Also be aware that the deadline for application to
these programs is fast approaching, so don't hesitate
to call and ask for an "application packet" ASAP.

Best of luck in your search.
