Arizona Archives Alliance (AzAA) Scholarship Program in Support of Institutional Internships
AzAA invites Arizona-based institutions interested in directing archival internships to apply for the AzAA Scholarship Program. A number of grants, up to $1,500 each, are available to institutions in support of student internships. Please note that we suggest an hourly rate of at least $14.35-15.00 per hour. In addition, grant awards are distributed directly to the host institution, and not to the intern. Host institutions may also match or contribute to the funds provided by these grants.
The objective is to provide interns with hands-on experience working with a wide variety of archival collections in order to gain a better understanding of archival principles and fundamental practices. The institutional host/supervisor will determine project responsibilities, internship length, and learning objectives and outcomes. Upon completion of the internship, the submission of a short, written summary detailing the internship experience of both the student intern and the project supervisor will need to be completed and submitted within two months of the project’s end.
In addition to traditional in-person internships, we are also accepting proposals for virtual or online internship projects.
The Scholarship Program has been temporarily suspended for 2025, we are not accepting proposals at this time. We look forward to reinstating it soon!
