Apologies for any cross-posting:

The Archive at Democracy Now!, http://www.democracynow.org, is 
seeking applications for summer 2008 internships. The archive is a 
audiovisual archive containing approximately 60,000 digital and 
physical media items and a research library within a non-profit, 
independent news organization. The archive's collection contains 
field recordings, oral histories, recordings of news events, and 
related independent news material from the mid-eighties until the 
present and serves internal news production and outside archival 
requests through active cataloguing, collection management, access 
and audiovisual preservation.

Internship:
Interns will be responsible for processing collections, re-housing 
archival materials, cataloguing, research, video ingest, analog to 
digital audio conversion, and creating online educational resources 
from archival material. This is an excellent opportunity for those 
interested in pursuing a career in media archives or a busy newsroom 
environment.

Please feel free to contact David Rice at [log in to unmask] for 
more information.
