This is an unpaid position based in Washington, D.C.

This will include:
- Inventorying the collection
- Re-organizing the materials within the allotted space
- Devising a management strategy for material “check-out” and “check-in”
- Suggesting methods for long-term management and collections strategy
- Other duties as assigned, related to the work of the Cultural Heritage Center
In addition, an internship at the U.S. Department of State provides students with valuable opportunities to gain substantive learning experiences in a foreign affairs environment. More information is available here: https://openopps.usajobs.gov/internships/1246?fromSearch
