NAGARA Internship Program
Franklin County has been selected as the 2026 host institution for the National Association of Government Archives and Records Administrators (NAGARA) internship program. Through this paid program, the intern will work closely with the Franklin County Archives & Records Management staff on the processing and description of historically significant county records. The internship will involve hands-on work with large-format tax maps and aerial photographs, including research into their creation and use in county government, the development of organizational tools to improve discovery and access, and the creation of descriptive metadata and finding aids geared toward public users. The internship will also include assisting in digitization efforts, public outreach activities, and documentation that helps make these records more accessible to researchers and the broader community. Through this program, the intern will gain exposure to the full scope of a county archives and records management program through mentorship, shadowing opportunities and interaction with staff supporting records preservation, access and public service. The experience is designed to support professional skill-building while allowing the intern to complete a discrete body of work suitable for inclusion in a professional portfolio.
Applications for the 2026 NAGARA Internship Program must be received by Friday, February 13, 2026.
