Roll Up Your Sleeves: Evaluating Plans, Preserving & Processing for the Local History "Beverly Room"

This on-site archival internship project will include reviewing previously created archivist reports and preservation & processing plans for Beverly Public Library’s local history Beverly Room, with the goal of determining what progress has been made. The project may also involve proposing improvements to existing plans, contributing to the processing & preservation of the Beverly Room collections, digitization of Beverly Room materials, or patron programming, depending on the intern's interest areas. The intern will give a presentation to the library staff toward the end of their project to inform the BPL about their accomplishments and progress made with the collection. The intern will be supervised by the Head of Reference.
