An interest in archival collections and coursework in archival management is preferred, and familiarity with Japanese American history in Hawai\u02bbi and Japanese language ability are ideal but not required. The internship involves some physical activity, including sitting, walking, reaching, and occasionally lifting or moving materials (typically up to 25\u201350 pounds). Reasonable accommodations can be made to support individuals with disabilities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Weekly Schedule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The intern\u2019s schedule is flexible but must be scheduled when the Resource Center is open.

We hope students will gain professional awareness and personal passion and satisfaction from preserving our cultural heritage and promoting it to many types of users. The Resource Center expects the intern to take part in the day-to-day activity of the Center as well as the completion of a specific project as determined at the beginning of the internship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Evaluation Methods<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Final evaluation will be performed using the standard LIS 690 evaluation form and additional feedback.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Evaluation Schedule<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Informal weekly meetings to check on progress, field questions and concerns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:8px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-large-font-size\">Contact Information<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-style-section-1 has-background has-global-padding is-layout-constrained wp-container-core-group-is-layout-87c8b65b wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained is-style-section-1--2\" style=\"background:linear-gradient(41deg,rgb(241,238,233) 0%,rgb(226,235,217) 97%);padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-right:0;padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--30);padding-left:0\">\n<p><strong>Devynn Kochi<\/strong> (Archives Manager) &#8211;
