Fellowship at NEDCC

Kress Fellowship
Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC)

The Northeast Document Conservation Center (NEDCC), located in
Andover, Massachusetts, 25 miles north of Boston, is offering a
one-year post-graduate internship in Book or Paper conservation,
depending on the professional goal and experience of the successful
candidate. The position will be supported by a grant from the Samuel
H. Kress Foundation. The fellowship offers an opportunity to spend a
concentrated amount of time at the bench in a spacious laboratory in
a collaborative environment with highly skilled and experienced
colleagues. The successful candidate will treat a variety of
materials, either bound or unbound. He or she may also participate
in outreach activities such as workshops, tours, and surveys. In
addition to bench skills, good written and oral English
communication skills are necessary.

Applicants must have a degree from a graduate level conservation
training program or equivalent experience. They must also be legally
entitled to live and work in the United States.

Compensation will include health and vacation benefits, as well as
funding and time away from the lab for travel and research to
supplement training at NEDCC. Please send an electronic application
consisting of a resume, letter of intent, and the names and contact
information of at least three references to:
