  • A Preservation Internship Program for the Staff of Chinese Academic Libraries
    In collaboration with the four leading academic libraries in Beijing, China — Renmin University Library, Peking University Library, Tsinghua University Library, and the China Agricultural University Library — Cornell University Library requests support to offer a program of internship in preservation practice designed to be part of the building blocks that will ultimately create a preservation infrastructure within Chinese academic libraries throughout the country. The program's goal is to develop a cadre of eight qualified Chinese library staff who will establish, maintain, and remain dedicated to preservation programs at institutions in their regions. The program is an important education and training experience that requires specialized resources only Cornell can offer. In addition to Cornell University Library's broad experience with internship programs, its singular combination of traditional conservation expertise and innovative use of cutting-edge technology makes the Library uniquely well-suited to host this program.  With funding from the Luce Foundation.  For additional information contact Barbara Eden beb1@cornell.edu.
