Wrapping up with interns

This spring I had three interns each doing a 3 credit internship. That's 24 hours a week one or another or all three were in here, plus the student doing a 1 credit internship! It calls for a lot of engagement on my part, but it is rewarding too. Highlights for this spring were one intern doing a thorough inventory of the main photo prints collection in the file cabinets in RG29. Another student did an inventory of the map cases. Both these areas were somewhat in the way of black holes, and now I have some better information to use for myself and add to the finding aid, which, as an aside, has been downloaded from Digital Commons 723 times as of today. The third student is finishing up a comprehensive survey of the Summer Arts Festival, which should be of real use going forward.
