What is a remote library internship?

Remote library internships are work experiences offered by libraries or organizations related to library science that allow interns to perform their duties online, rather than onsite. These internships may involve tasks such as cataloging digital resources, assisting with virtual reference services, organizing online community programs, or supporting library outreach through digital platforms. They provide valuable experience in the library field, especially for students or recent graduates, and allow for flexible, location-independent work. Remote internships can help build professional skills, improve digital literacy, and expand one’s network within the library and information science community.
