Get PAID to Intern with the Library of Congress this Summer!

Haé !  — (Hello in the Seneca language!) pronounced: Ha-ay) This Gen-I Native Opportunities Weekly (NOW) message shares information about the Library of Congress Junior Fellows Summer Intern Program

The LOC Junior Fellows Summer Intern Program is a paid, 10-week full-time internship that will take place from May 30 to August 4, 2017.

Junior Fellows collaborate with world-class curators and specialists on an exciting array of projects that span the Library’s vast collections. Their work helps expand access and information for students, teachers, librarians, researchers, and historians across the world. Junior Fellows combine their interests and skills to make materials available – for example, cataloging items and creating finding aids to facilitate research; using scientific inquiry to support preservation efforts; and curating sets of materials into onsite and online web exhibits.
