Job Description
Position Overview
Vanderbilt Special Collections and University Archives (SCUA) specializes in preserving and providing access to collections on the political, social, cultural and economic history of the American South. From prominent literary figures to leading civil rights activists, SCUA's Southern archival collections tell the stories of people from all walks of life, and these stories enrich scholarly research, class instruction, and community connection.
We are seeking an intern to process and describe one or more of our Southern archival collections in compliance with Describing Archives: A Content Standard and guidelines provided by SCUA. The successful candidate will have some knowledge of archival theory and best practices, be detail-oriented, and comfortable working with spreadsheets. This internship will provide hands-on archival processing experience in an academic library environment under the supervision of a full-time archivist

• Martha Sue Thrasher Papers: writer, educator and civil rights activist; member of the Student Nonviolent Coordinating Committee; founding member of the Southern Students Organizing Committee
• Donald G. Beisswenger Papers: theologian and activist; co-founded Project Return for people returning to life after incarceration
• Harmon Wray Papers: writer and activist for prison reform and anti-death penalty causes
Key Responsibilities
• Conduct an assessment of the collection(s) concerning material types, date ranges, subject matter, and preservation issues
• Develop an arrangement plan for the collection based on the creator(s) of the collection(s) and research value, identifying appropriate series and subseries groupings
• Physically arrange and rehouse the collection(s) into acid-free folders and boxes, including conducting minor cleaning of documents and replacing rusty paperclips
• Identify potential documents for digitization within the collection(s) based on the strengths of material and complementing existing digital collections
• Describe the collection(s) in ArchivesSpace using DACS metadata standards and SCUA processing policies, including the completion of finding aid notes for scope and content, biographical/historical statement, and arrangement statement
