Pre-Program Internship in Rare Book and Library Materials Conservation
University of Washington Libraries
The University of Washington Libraries is offering a pre-program internship for
an individual with a demonstrated interest in conservation. Applicants are
expected to be preparing for or enrolled in a graduate level conservation
program in the United
States.
This is a full-time (40 hours per week) summer program. Duration is 10 weeks,
with exact dates to be arranged between June and September 2018. The
University of Washington Libraries provides a $6,000 stipend.
Working under the supervision of the Senior Conservator, the intern will have
the opportunity to perform a broad range of conservation treatments on rare
books, manuscripts, prints, drawings, maps, and other unbound archival and
special collections materials on paper and vellum. The intern will develop
skills in treatment decision-making, prepare condition and treatment reports
with appropriate photo documentation, and gain additional experience in
conservation
treatment.
