Job Description
The New York Academy of Medicine Library is looking for a Library/Information Science student for a summer internship. Under the guidance of our Public Engagement Librarian, the intern will learn what it’s like to approach a special collection for a more general audience. The internship will allow the student to work with a 176-year-old collection and get a chance to see different aspects of a specialized library.
This graduate level internship will run on a hybrid model. The intern will be expected in the office (1216 5th Ave, NY, NY 10029) at least 2 days a week, depending on workload. The internship is expected to run around 6/3 until 8/2. This is a paid internship. Be sure to check with your advisor on what you need to receive credit.
If interested, applicants are asked to write no more than 500 words on the experience you bring and what you are looking to get out of this summer internship. The documents as well as any questions can be e-mailed to our Public Engagement Librarian, Anthony Murisco, at amurisco@nyam.org. Deadline is April 19th.
