I have an internship position available for a student intern or recent
graduate, with all funds to be expended before September 1. The intern
would prepare a content inventory and analysis of the web materials
(including downloadable files) controlled by the ALA offices, with the
final deliverable being an information architecture plan that integrates
the materials into the right place on the website by topic. The right
person for the position would be able to think analytically about
concepts and the relationships between them, and would be able to learn
our CMS and make some of the most significant changes with my
assistance.

 

During July 9-14, the selected intern would assist with a series of one
on one website usability tests with members, in conjunction with our 11
division webmasters and me. There may also be some additional
accessibility testing with members who have various disabilities. The
selected intern might be asked to analyze and summarize the findings.

 

The position would probably pay $15 an hour, and could be full time (35
hours a week) from mid-May to late August. If you are interested, send
me a resume and a cover letter that speaks to your ability to do this
type of work, even if the skills are transferable ones from other
experience.
