[padg] IMLS Preservation Administration Fellowship

[efrangakis@xxxxxxxx]

(Apologies for cross posting)

Colleagues,

With support from the Institute of Museum
and Library Services, The New York Public Library, partnering with the
libraries at Yale, Rutgers, and the University of Connecticut at Storrs,
is implementing a preservation administration fellowship program from 2010-2012.
This program is designed to give recently graduated preservation librarians
an opportunity to put theory into practice while benefitting from the mentoring
of experienced professionals. A total of eight fellows will spend nine-month
residencies rotating through various preservation units such as collections
care, conservation treatment, and audio and moving image preservation.
Each fellow will be expected to identify, plan, and complete a major project
that combines research and its practical application at his or her host
institution.

A detailed summary of the IMLS Preservation
Administration Fellowship as well as the job descriptions for both the
Yale and NYPL fellows are attached to this message.  

For inquiries about the fellowship based
