<p class="MsoNormal">The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and Museum's Library and Archives offers opportunities for intern experiences to graduate students preparing for careers in libraries and archives. Interns must schedule their work Monday through Friday during
regular business hours. Interns work under the supervision and guidance of one of the Rock Hall’s librarians and archivists, depending on the nature of the practicum. Internships are done on a volunteer basis.<br>
<br>
<br>
Internships are offered in the following areas:<br>
<br>
Archival Arrangement, Preservation, and Description<br>
Participate in archival processing and preservation work, such as inventorying, arranging and describing archival collections, entering data into an archival management system, and performing basic preservation work on document-based collections.<br>
<br>
Cataloging and Metadata<br>
Work on projects to create and enhance bibliographic records in a library catalog and/or create metadata for digital collections. Such work may entail assigning subject and name access points, preparing descriptive summaries, and reviewing catalog records for
accuracy.<br>
<br>
Collection Development<br>
Participate in collection development activities in a music research library. Such work includes evaluating current materials and making recommendations for future additions to the collection. The student will gain an understanding of library users’ needs,
the constraints of physical space, various resources and tools used in collection development, and the budgetary considerations required of such decisions.<br>
<br>
Digital Projects<br>
Support initiatives to increase access to collections through digitization and website access. Possible assignments include scanning, entering and editing metadata in a digital asset management system, preparing technical and administrative documentation, testing
digitization workflows, and assisting with interface design, usability studies, and related web development activities.<br>
<br>
Reference<br>
This internship provides the opportunity for a SLIS student to support the archivists and librarians on staff in response to research requests. Such work may include searching the online catalog, research databases, print reference sources, and archival collections
for researchers at a distance, as well as staffing the Information Desk or Archives Reading Room to assist researchers in person.<br>
<br>
<br>
How to Apply:<br>
<br>
Interested individuals may send a cover letter and resume (including full contact information and e-mail address), a personal statement or one-page document describing what they hope to bring to the internship and gain from the experience, and a letter of recommendation
from a professor (may be sent separately) to:<br>
