ARLIS/NA 2013 Internship Award Recipient Selected
The Art Libraries Society of North America is pleased to announce Kai Alexis Smith as the recipient of its 2013 Internship Award. This prestigious award grants $2,500 to support a period of internship for a student preparing for a career in art librarianship or visual resources curatorship. In addition to the $2,500 stipend, Ms. Smith will receive a one-year complimentary membership in ARLIS/NA.
Kai Smith is currently a student at Pratt Institute, where she is working to complete both her MSLIS and MA in the History of Art. She also holds a BFA in writing from Pratt. Ms. Smith has experience working in a variety of library settings
including both museum and public libraries.
The Subcommittee reviewed 35 applications and is pleased to report that many of them were outstanding. While only one ARLIS/NA Internship Award is granted each year, ARLIS/NA does maintain a list of paid and unpaid internship opportunities; interested students and potential hosts are encouraged to visit the Internship Roster website for more information.
Many thanks to all the applicants who took the time to prepare an application and congratulations to Kai Alexis Smith.
