The Mina Rees Library has two graduate student funding opportunities for the Spring 2025 semester to assist with digitization projects in the Graduate Center’s institutional archives:
- CLAGS Digitization Fellowship
- Student Newspapers Digitization Fellowship
Working with library faculty, the digitization fellows will select archival materials to digitize and create an online collection using JSTOR Forum. These are project-based positions open to Graduate Center doctoral or master’s students. Fellows will gain experience with handling archival materials and will build skills in archival research, digitization, and metadata application in digital platforms. Fellows should be available to complete project activities onsite in the library during the Spring 2025 semester and will receive a $2500 stipend.
For detailed project descriptions and eligibility requirements, visit our Graduate Fellowships page on the library website.
Applications for both opportunities are due January 13, 2025.
