    I am delighted to announce that the National Digital Stewardship Residency (NDSR) program is now accepting applications through July 20, 2016. Applicants can apply through the USAJOBs vacancy announcement available from https://www.usajobs.gov/GetJob/ViewDetails/441209500 


    If you aren’t familiar, the NDSR program is a field experience opportunity developed by the Library of Congress and the Institute of Museum and Library Services open to recent masters and doctoral graduates interested in digital stewardship, who have graduated from an accredited degree-granting program between summer 2014 and summer 2016. Doctoral candidates with graduation beyond summer 2016 are also encouraged to apply. You can read more about the NDSR program from the website, available from http://www.digitalpreservation.gov/ndsr

    The Library and five host institutions will select five residents to begin a one-year full-time paid residency to develop, apply, and advance their digital stewardship knowledge and skills in real-world settings. Please pass this message along!
