THE LIBRARY OF CONGRESS JUNIOR FELLOW INTERNS 2012 DISPLAY
JULY 26, 9 am. – 3 pm.
LIBRARY OF CONGRESS, THOMAS JEFFERSON BUILDING
ROOM U 119

Working under the direction of Library curators and specialists in various
divisions, the Junior Fellows explore and increase access to the
institution’s unparalleled collections and resources. They are exposed to a
broad spectrum of library work: copyright, preservation, reference, access
standards, information management and digital initiatives. Summer interns have
identified hundreds of historical, literary, artistic, cinematic and musical
gems in the course of their work, representing the Library’s rich cultural,
creative and intellectual assets. The 2012 class will showcase their findings
and work at this event.
