The John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is currently seeking applicants for a part-time position in our Archives Processing Unit. Through this internship you will participate in the preparation, scanning, and possible entry of metadata involved in a large-scale digitization process, where you will be introduced to theories and practices surrounding content management and digital asset management systems.

As an intern at the JFK Library, you will work alongside and learn from professional archivists. You will be encouraged to ask questions about the profession and the processes employed by the Library, and you will have the unique opportunity to gain experience at a Presidential Library, which is part of the National Archives and Records Administration. This is an excellent opportunity for individuals interested in gaining digital experience in an archives setting while attending graduate school.

Interns will be paid $12.50 per hour, may work between the hours of 8:30am-4:30pm, Monday-Friday, and must work a minimum of 12 hours per week (with a maximum possibility of 35 hours/week). The library is accessible by public transportation; free parking is also available. For directions and additional information, please visit our website, http://www.jfklibrary.org
