Dear colleagues,



Dumbarton Oaks is one of the host institutions for the inaugural National
Digital Stewardship Residency (NDSR). We would like to encourage any
current LIS students or recent graduates to apply, so I thought I would
share the recent announcement below to the list. Application instructions
will be made available next week, so please feel free to circulate to
anyone who might be interested in applying!



Many thanks,

Shalimar

The Library of Congress and The Institute of Museum and Library Services
are pleased to announce that the call for applications for the inaugural
National Digital Stewardship Residency (NDSR) class will begin next week.



The NDSR program will allow ten recent graduates of Master’s degree
programs in relevant fields to complete a nine-month residency at various
institutions in the Washington, D.C. area. The entire list of projects can
currently be found on the NDSR Web site at
www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsr/hosts <http://1.usa.gov/11QGEjK>.
Institutions that will be hosting residents include:



Association of Research Librarians,

Dumbarton Oaks Research Library and Collection,

Folger Shakespeare Library,

The Library of Congress,

Maryland Institute for Technology in the Humanities / University of
Maryland Libraries,

National Library of Medicine,

The National Security Archive,

Public Broadcasting Service,

Smithsonian Institution Archives, and

The World Bank.



Beginning in September 2013, accepted residents will attend an intensive
two-week digital stewardship workshop at the Library of Congress.
Thereafter, residents will begin their experience at a host institution to
work on significant digital stewardship projects. Their projects will allow
them to acquire hands-on knowledge and skills involving the collection,
selection, management, long-term preservation, and accessibility of digital
assets.



Additional information about NDSR can be found at
www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsr <http://1.usa.gov/11PAvUL>.  Application
instructions will be available next week.



Thank you,
