Internships, Bay Path University, Longmeadow, MA

Posted September 16, 2014

WHAT?

If you have an interest in academic library services, the Hatch Library staff at Bay Path University invites you to consider interning with us this semester. We’d welcome one or more Simmons interns who could help us continue inventorying our institutional archives collection, preparing selected items for digitization (already ongoing through the BPL/IMLS project), and developing appropriate records and finding aids. We’d also welcome professionally guided assistance in providing reference services and information literacy instruction to our students.

WHERE?

Bay Path University is a dynamic private college located in nearby Longmeadow, Massachusetts. Since our founding in 1897, we have emphasized a career-focused curriculum that prepares students to become professionals and leaders in their fields. Our innovative programs for undergraduate women, our One-Day-a-Week Saturday program, sixteen graduate programs for men and women, and Bay Path Online have made us a pioneer among our peer institutions.

The Hatch Library supports Bay Path’s 2,500+ residential and commuter students, online students from throughout the United States and beyond, programs on all levels and at two satellite campuses, in Charlton and Burlington, MA, and is open seven days a week year round.

*Monday-Thursday 8 AM – 10 PM
*Friday 8 AM – 5 PM
*Saturday 7 AM – 7 PM
