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]
