Hi
Thanks to all who have posted or circulated the announcement for Salem Public Library's marketing internship.

Applications will be reviewed on Friday, Aug. 1 so they must be at the library--mail, email, hand-delivered--by close of business on Thursday.  And they must be complete; a few have come in without all the required items. By Thursday, it will be too late to send incomplete ones back for more info.

Just in case you've suddenly encountered a promising student, here's the info again.  Thanks very much for your help.
Carol Mitchell, Salem Public Library Advisory Board Chair

Marketing, PR or Communications Intern Sought

Salem Public Library seeks an intern with marketing, communications or similar major to help launch the new "Did You Know" program alerting the public to lesser-known services and programs at the library.

The program will benefit the community by widening awareness and usage of the library's technical, educational and entertainment offerings. Target audiences include both current users and under-served groups.

This is a paid internship. In addition to a small stipend, staff will assist with academic credit. Pay is $10 per hour, limited a total of 300 hours. A flexible schedule will accommodate both intern and library needs.

Under the direction of a library administrator, the intern will use various media to raise public awareness of many features available at the library. Work may include writing for publication, posting to website, speaking to groups, helping with radio or community TV presentations.

Required qualifications:

Major in a relevant discipline

Good written, verbal and organizational skills

"New media" skills

Knowledge of Salem-Keizer area

To apply, send a resume, a reference from a faculty member, and a cover letter describing your experience in promoting a product, service or event. Explain your role and responsibilities in the project and what you learned from it.
