Internships and volunteer opportunities
From time to time the ISAW Library offers internships to high school, college, and graduate students to work on projects that range from library science to academic publishing and scholarly communications to computational approaches to ancient studies and the digital humanities. Unfortunately, we are unable to accommodate volunteers who may wish to work with our physical collections.
We are now fully committed for summer internships. Please write to David Ratzan at dr128@nyu.edu if you are interested applying for the Fall 2025.
Past opportunities have included work on the following topics and projects:
- Representing Women Authorship in the Latin Treebanks
(natural language processing and language modelling in Latin) - Gardens of the Roman Empire (academic publishing and scholarly communications)
- ISAW Monographs (academic publishing and scholarly communications)
- Integrating library data and generative AI
- Alt text remediation
- Collections and donor research
Please see our Intern Reports page for information about past projects by the interns themselves.
Please see our Current Projects page for more information about active internship and volunteer opportunities in the ISAW Library.
If you have any questions about our projects or internships or volunteering at the ISAW Library (including about possible Dual Degree Program internships), please email isaw-library@nyu.edu.
