Internship Award
November 10, 2005
For immediate release

 
The Art Libraries Society of North America is pleased to announce Greta Bahnemann as the recipient of its 2005-2006 Internship Award.  The award provides financial support for an internship to a student preparing for a career in art librarianship or visual resources curatorship.  Previous Intern Award recipients have been hosted by a variety of institutions such as the Pierpont Morgan Library, the National Gallery of Art Image Collections, the Museum of Modern Art Library, the University of Texas at Austin Libraries, and others. In addition to the $2,500.00 stipend, Bahnemann will receive a one year membership in ARLIS/NA at the student level.

A record number of more than sixty applications were received from current students and recent graduates of library science, art history, studio art and museum studies graduate programs.  Bahnemann holds a B.A. in History with Art History and Theater Arts minors from the University of Minnesota Morris and a M.A. in Early American Culture from the Winterthur Program in Early American Culture at the University of Delaware.  She has curatorial experience at several museums and is presently a M.L.I.S. candidate in the School of Library and Archival Science at the University of British Columbia scheduled to graduate this December.  She currently works as a Graduate Academic Assistant for the University’s Fine Arts Division Library. 

Bahnemann expressed an interest in working on a digital collection as a possible internship project and expects to make arrangements with a host institution this winter.
