Remote Librarian Internship information

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a Remote Librarian Intern, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Remote Librarian Intern, you need a background in library science or information studies, strong research abilities, and familiarity with digital library resources. Experience with library management systems, online databases, and virtual reference tools such as LibGuides or OCLC WorldCat is often essential. Excellent communication, self-motivation, and time management skills help interns collaborate remotely and provide effective user support. These skills ensure interns can efficiently organize information, assist patrons online, and adapt to the unique demands of a virtual library environment.

The Remote Librarian Internship is an educational opportunity for students pursuing library science, focusing on gaining practical experience. In contrast, a Remote Library Assistant is a support role requiring less formal education, assisting with daily library operations. Both roles are common in library settings but serve different purposes in career development and responsibilities.

How does a remote librarian intern typically collaborate with library staff and patrons despite working off-site?

Remote librarian interns often use digital communication tools such as email, video conferencing, and library management systems to coordinate with staff and assist patrons. They may participate in virtual team meetings, contribute to online resource development, and offer reference services through chat or email. Building strong communication skills and being proactive in reaching out to both colleagues and patrons are essential for success in this remote environment. Interns also commonly work on digital projects, such as curating online collections or creating instructional content, which requires regular collaboration and feedback from the team.

What is a Remote Librarian Internship?

A Remote Librarian Internship is a temporary position for students or recent graduates to gain practical experience in library and information science while working online. Interns typically assist with digital cataloging, research support, virtual reference services, and the development of online resources. This internship allows participants to build professional skills, network with library professionals, and gain insight into the evolving field of librarianship—all from a remote location. The flexibility and accessibility of remote internships make them an attractive option for those unable to relocate or commute. Tasks and requirements may vary depending on the library's needs and the intern's background.

Job description


Who we are
Founded in 1923, W. W. Norton is the oldest and largest independent and employee-owned publishing house, publishing works of Nobel laureates, master teachers, and Pulitzer Prize winners. For over a century, Norton has been dedicated to achieving a common goal: to bring to readers and students enduring fiction, nonfiction, and poetry, as well as high-quality textbooks and digital learning tools.
About the internship
W. W. Norton is looking for interns to participate in our twelve-week internship program. Our internship program provides participants with an engaging, supportive, and hands-on learning experience in publishing that includes educational lunch sessions and networking within the intern class. Your work if you become a Norton intern with the Digital Production team may include the following:
  • Developing ebooks for Norton Library and Norton Critical Edition titles. With the assistance of an Ebook Producer, the Digital Production intern will create ebooks of Norton Library and Norton Critical Edition titles. This process includes organizing raw production material, coordinating with editorial throughout quality assurance, and implementing corrections.
  • Implementing post-publication corrections and accessibility updates to the ebook backlist. Occasionally, the titles we already published need to be corrected. These corrections may involve legal changes, fixes to errata, or resolving functional problems. Titles also may need to be updated to improve accessibility, including adding alternative text and improving color contrast.
  • Digital archiving of Instructor Resources, art logs, and ebook production files. At the end of the publishing process, producers in Media and Ebook Production bundle all the assets they have built and generate an archival copy. These archives must be maintained according with preservation, organization, and cataloguing standards so they may be easily referenced when we start projects for new editions.
  • Creating Living Art Logs. Editorial teams request art log set ups in Smartsheet at the beginning of projects. The Digital Publishing intern will help with the creation of new art logs.
  • Completing Closed Captioning requests. Editorial teams send MP4 files for closed captioning creation. The Digital Production Intern will help with fulfilling these requests.

Experience and Skills

We are excited to add interns who bring diverse perspectives to Norton. The ideal candidate is curious, hardworking, and eager to learn more about the different facets of publishing. Here are some skills and qualities we look for in candidates:
  • You are a college junior, senior, recent graduate, or someone looking to make a career change.
  • You are eager to improve your verbal and written communication skills.
  • You enjoy collaborating and working in a group to solve challenges.
  • You have a passion for learning and ideas.
  • You have a working knowledge of Microsoft Office programs (Word, Excel, Outlook).
  • You have experience or a willingness to learn HTML/CSS
  • You have an interest in the digital side of publishing or in developing your technical skills

Internship details
  • Interns are paid $17 per hour, subject to applicable law, and work a maximum of 20 hours weekly.
  • Internship period is twelve weeks from 9/14/2026-12/4/2026
  • Our workday is 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m. Eastern Time; specific work hours are flexible to accommodate an intern's schedule.

If you are interested in applying, please submit your resume and cover letter* to Daria Turner and Jay Barrett (dturner@wwnorton.com and jbarrett@wwnorton.com) no later than August 14, 2026. Applications will be considered on a rolling basis, and if enough applications are received, this listing may close early. Once you have submitted your application, please refrain from sending additional follow-up emails, as these will only delay the hiring manager's ability to read the applications received. Final hiring decisions will be made by 9/1/2026, so if you do not hear from us by then, you can assume the internship has been filled by a different applicant. You must follow these submission instructions in order to be considered for the internship.
* Your cover letter should be original and not AI-generated; we are interested in your authentic voice!
