Dear Colleagues,

I am delighted to announce that the National Digital Stewardship Residency 
(NDSR) program has a very special opportunity. The Library of Congress, the
Royal Library and Royal Archives, Windsor Castle, and their partners seek an
individual resident to lead the Georgian Paper Programme project. Time will be
split between Washington DC and the United Kingdom.

The Georgian Paper Programme is an international digital and research enterprise
based upon substantial unpublished collections for the period 1714-1837 in the
Royal Library and Royal Archives, Windsor Castle, in partnership with King's
College London, Library of Congress, Mount Vernon Library, William and Mary
College and the Omohundro Institute. 

If you aren’t familiar, the NDSR program is a field experience opportunity open
to recent masters and doctoral graduates interested in digital stewardship, who
have graduated from an accredited degree-granting program between summer 2013
and summer 2016. Doctoral candidates with graduation beyond summer 2016 are also
encouraged to apply. The individual selected for this position, who must have
the degree in hand, will begin the program in October 2016.

The Library and its partners will select one resident to begin a one-year
full-time paid residency to develop, apply, and advance their digital
stewardship knowledge and skills in this unique setting. We ask you to please
share the word about this exceptional opportunity. Also, if you personally know
of someone who would be a good candidateplease pass this message along. 

A project description is attached that provides more details about what we are
seeking. This is a highly visible position, working with staff of the Royal
Trust, so it is essential that the resident demonstrate superlative social,
written and oral communication, and interpersonal skills. Highest consideration
will be given to applications with demonstrated paid experience in digital
stewardship.

Thank you for your assistance in distributing the announcement.  Applications
should be emailed no later than COB, Friday, September 16  directly to me.

Note: Applicants who responded to the draft announcement do not need to resubmit
their materials.

Thank you,

George
