With Mellon Foundation funding, the BARNARD TEACHES: REAL PLACE + DIGITAL ACCESS grant is offering two paid internships for the summer of 2016. Each intern will split her time between the Schomburg Center for Research in Black Culture (20-25 hours) and the Barnard College Archives (10-15 hours). This is an opportunity to see the inner workings of the premier archive of black life in the US as well as to work with world-class collections and experts in their respective fields. Each interns will work with either the Communications Division or the Jean Blackwell Hutson Reference and Research Division, occasionally shadow Steven G. Fullwood, Associate Curator of the Manuscripts, Archives and Rare Books Division, and work with collaboratively with the Barnard Archivists. (See attached description of expected skills & duties.)

by Kim Hall 0 Comments

NYPL has a pilot project that aggregates various holdings across its institution. It used Ntozake's materials as an example!The student scheduled for this week had a medical emergency and was not able to publish this week’s “Reading Zake” post.  Do your update comments on this post. Please also check the syllabus to be prepared for next week’s discussion.

–SMALL GROUPS: I really need people to show up for the small group meetings, Tiana and I have finite time, we will not be able to keep re-scheduling and they are for your benefit. I also have a very tight calendar for the next two weeks, so making an individual appointment with me will not be possible.
