Responsibilities will include inventory and cataloging of records and archival materials on file in the Museum; updating database catalog records with additional information; rehousing archival materials (and other collections care activities); and tracking and maintaining records of project activities. In addition to the primary work to support the NAGPRA efforts for archival collections, the NAGPRA Collection Associate’s will assist in general collections management tasks. This is a full-time, 3.5 year term position[CS1] , with possibility for renewal.

Duties and Responsibilities:

Assist the Archivist and Collections Manager for Archaeology in inventorying, processing, cataloguing, and preventative conservation of archival collections at the museum.
Assist the Collections Manager for Archaeology in the review of museum collection records to support the museum’s compliance with NAGPRA.
