I would like to remind all history and library science department heads about the Archie Motley Memorial Scholarship for Minority Students. The Midwest Archives Conference (MAC) awards two $750 scholarships each spring to students enrolled in a graduate archival program. A complimentary annual membership to MAC is also included. Applicants must be of African, American Indian, Asian or Pacific Islander, or Latino descent. Complete information, including the application form and deadline, may be found on the MAC website: http://www.midwestarchives.org/motley.asp

Please forward this information to interested students, as it is a great opportunity to help them in their archival endeavors. The deadline for application entry is March 1, 2010.

Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Respectfully,

Kimberly Neuenschwander
Chair, Archie Motley Memorial Scholarship for Minority students

Those of you pursuing the dual degree program at Long Island University
might be interested in applying for the NCSU Libraries fellowship. I
worked in the NCSU Libraries for two years and thoroughly enjoyed my
time there. Here’s the short description:

“The NCSU Libraries Fellows program offers a unique opportunity to a
select group of M.L.S. and M.I.S. graduates who will receive the degree
in November 2009 or later. Fellows will be appointed at the rank of
librarian for a two-year term from July 2010 through June 2012. An
option for January or September placement may be available, depending
upon graduation date. The NCSU Libraries is particularly well known for
its digital library programs, its technological advances, and its
commitment to defining the future of librarianship. The NCSU Libraries
offers Fellows the opportunity for rapid professional growth through
assignment to an innovative project, combined with experience and
mentoring in a department. Fellows are appointed to the rank of
librarian for a two-year term.”
