Juana Suárez, New York Public Library - Library for the Performing Arts, Spring 2012, IMLS

During the spring 2012 semester I was an intern at the New York Public Library for the Performing Arts at Lincoln Center. I worked closely with Tom Christie and Natiba Guy. Under their supervision, I was involved in projects related to the library Service Films, the Jerry Ames collection and the Marylou Williams Collection. The tasks performed were standard. However, they were valuable to develop skills in basic film inspection and rehousing. These tasks applied primarily to the Service Films and to the Mary Lou Williams Collection. For the Jerry Ames, I worked mainly in sorting film by generations, completing the spreadsheet with information from the Millennium catalogue of the library, and in general, correcting metadata.
