Data Internship for Students of Underrepresented Racial/Ethnic Gps, Network of the Natl Lib of Med (Virtual)

About the Internship

The ability to provide data services is now a part of many job openings and new opportunities in health sciences and academic libraries. In turn, the goal of the NCDS Internship Program is to provide practical experiences to interns that include the soft and hard skills needed to enter data librarian positions, including working on a team, understanding the data lifecycle, and working with data. In an effort to diversify the profession, the National Center for Data Services (NCDS) of the Network of the National Library of Medicine (NNLM) provides internships for people from underrepresented racial and ethnic groups.The goal of this program is to introduce students from historically excluded racial and ethnic groups to data librarianship in a health sciences context.These paid internships offer opportunities to gain practical experience while working with a mentor in a guided environment on structured, data-related projects. The practical experiences developed during the internship will provide participants with skills needed to be competitive for data librarian positions.

The internships are flexible and unique in that they allow students to participate either on-site or remote. Depending on the location and interest of the intern, these internships will be in-person or virtual (possibly including a site visit), and with a host library or within the NCDS.
