Fellowship - National Digital Stewardship Residency program

The mission of the National Digital Stewardship Residency (NDSR) is to build a dedicated community of professionals who will advance our nation's capabilities in managing, preserving, and making accessible the digital record of human achievement. This will enable current and future generations to fully realize the potential of digital resources now and for years to come. The National Digital Stewardship Residency is a groundbreaking new program created by the Library of Congress in partnership with the Institute of Museum and Library Sciences (IMLS). Residents of the NDSR program will have the opportunity to develop, apply, and advance their digital stewardship knowledge and skills in real-world settings. Starting in June 2013, these paid residency experiences will be hosted in five Washington, D.C. area institutions, including the Library of Congress. Application info will become available in late 2012. In the meantime, please visit the Application Info link for basic application requirements.
