The NDSR program is a field experience opportunity developed by the Library of Congress<https://www.loc.gov/> and the Institute of Museum and Library Services<https://www.imls.gov/> 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.

Five residents will be selected 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 help spread the word about this exclusive opportunity, and pass this message along.  I have also provided some sample text to share via social media channels.

Thank you,
