Librarian/Cataloguer Intern (Unpaid)
10 weeks, 10 hours per week (flexible)
Position Description: The Museum for Art in Wood in Philadelphia, PA, is looking for a part-time Librarian/Cataloguer Intern to catalogue new acquisitions of books. This will include inputting associated data into the PastPerfect collections management database as well as organizing, labeling, and shelving (also re-shelving as-needed) material in alphabetical and numerical order. If time allows, the Intern will use an existing inventory of books to identify duplicates within the collection and document condition issues.
The intern will perform physical tasks, such as lifting and moving library material up to 30 pounds and will also be expected to use a computer for extended periods of time to catalogue using Excel and the PastPerfect collections management database.
