Internship experience at The American Academy in Rome

In the Summer of 2017, I had the pleasure of interning at the American Academy in Rome, specifically in their extensive research library. I shared this experience with my fellow AUR resident Taneisha Tamayo, and together we assisted the library staff with shifting books on all floors of the library to reorganize the collection, leave space for certain volumes to grow, and free shelves for incoming additions.

From this internship, I have gained a deeper understanding and respect for library science, and will definitely consider working in a similar environment in the future. Being an art history major, and Taneisha an archaeology and classics major, we were very much in our element: the library’s main focus was in fact on both our majors. We even got to take home some books destined to be donated or sold. I myself managed to find the 7th edition of Gardner’s “Art Through the Ages” among these books, an art history student’s bread and butter.
