Greetings Colleagues, I trust you're in good spirits and practicing self-care. The Winterthur/University of Delaware Program in Art Conservation, in partnership with the HBCU Library Alliance, has received a fifth round of funding to coordinate ten fully-funded, face-to-face six-week summer internships in library and archives preservation in 2022 at eight nationally recognized library preservation/conservation laboratories. The internship can pivot to completely virtual in response to the Covid-19 pandemic and CDC recommendations. Thanks to Board member Debbie Hess Norris, University of Delaware, for securing this funding. I'm even more excited for this opportunity to bring diversity to librarianship and to expose conservation/preservation host sites to our talented, skilled and distinguished HBCU undergraduates. HBCU Library Alliance members in good standing are eligible to participate in this program. Your assistance is needed to widely promote the program and identify strong undergraduate applicants for this dynamic opportunity. Follow this link http://www.hbculibraries.org/2022-interns.html for more information. The application finish-line is extended to Monday, March 21st. Contact me directly if you have questions or need additional information. Respectfully, Sandra Sandra M.
