We are looking for interns.
INTERNS: Interns are needed to help surf the web for history news and
articles and excerpts. If you are a professor with students who love history
please make them aware of our internship program. We accept interns from
across the country. At many colleges and universities class credit can be
arranged for students enrolled in our program.
Contact the editor about these positions by sending an email to Rick
Shenkman at the following address:

An intern or volunteer research assistant is needed to help organize the
archives of a Palestinian educator and activist who lived in Palestine during
the later Ottoman Empire and the British Mandate and in New York from
1945-1950. The goal is to record as much as possible on a CD Rom. Archival
materials are primarily in English, though some are in Arabic. Materials to
be organized include diaries, letters, lecture notes, news articles, and
photographs.
The work would involve typing, organizing, sorting and filing materials. It
would take place in a private home in Berkeley and the hours would be
arranged according to the convenience of the employer and the student, and in
keeping with the academic requirements of the sponsoring program. Knowledge
of Arabic would be helpful but is not necessary.
