Full Job Description

The Morgan Library & Museum welcomes applications for its 2026–2027 Academic Year Internship program. The program provides an introduction to the variety of career opportunities available in museums and special collections libraries. Each intern is assigned to a department relevant to their interest and works with departmental staff on timely topics in that area. Interns also have the opportunity to learn about the Morgan and the museum and special collections fields more generally through professional development opportunities such as facility tours and meetings with museum leadership.

The Morgan especially seeks to provide opportunities to candidates with experiences and perspectives that have not been adequately reflected in the museum and special collections library fields.

Academic year interns generally work up to 14 hours per week, beginning in mid-September and running through early to mid-May. Some internships have specific scheduling requirements as noted in the descriptions below. Interns are expected to make every effort to attend the program’s professional development programs, which may require modifying their schedule from time to time. All internships are on-site at the Morgan.

Exhibitions and Collections Department and the Photography Curatorial Internship:

The Exhibitions and Collections and Photography curatorial departments offer a joint academic year internship. This intern would work cooperatively with both departments on data entry, cataloging, and intake related to a significant photography collection acquisition. In addition, this internship provides the opportunity to work closely with both departments on other collections and data management tasks, including cataloging, organization of gift paperwork, and incoming acquisition data management. This internship also offers a window into the exhibition planning and implementation process.

Eligibility:

Current enrollment as an undergraduate or graduate student
Strong interest in a career in the museum or research library fields
Eligibility to work in the United States; international candidates must be eligible to participate in a paid internship program in the United States
Strong verbal and written communication skills

Compensation: $19 per hour.

To Apply: Interns will be selected on a competitive basis via an application process. The deadline to apply for an internship is August 10, 2026.

A cover letter describing your interest in the internship. The cover letter should also include a statement about your interest in the museum or library field, and your future aspirations
Your resume
Any other information that you would like to provide regarding your candidacy for a Morgan academic year internship
The names and contact information of two references (please include the person’s name, title, organization, telephone number, and email address)

Please note that applications received without all the requested information, including a cover letter, will not be considered. Candidates selected for interviews will be contacted before August 14, 2026, with notification of the decision following soon thereafter. No phone calls, please.
