Extensible Arrangement and Description of Daedalus editorial files (advanced)

The intern will process at least two collections comprising records related to the creation and publication of one Daedalus issue. Using the “More Product, Less Process” (MPLP) method, the intern will inventory identified boxes with related material, create a processing plan, physically arrange the records according to the processing plan, and describe the records in a Microsoft Access database. The database will generate a finding aid in Word, HTML, and EAD/XML as a final product. As time permits, the intern will select and digitize records to link in finding aid online and create an online exhibition. The intern will also receive practice in transcribing pre-20th century manuscripts, if interested.
