Wanted, Free Labor: The Impact and Ethics of Unpaid Work“Budget cuts or other challenges are not an excuse to strip a position of its pay and slap the word “intern” on it. This does a disservice to the intern by lacking key mentorship and learning components, and does a disservice to the profession by devaluing our education and skills. Don’t do it. If you see it done, call it out.” Lance Stuchell http://newarchivist.com/2011/11/17/free-labor/

Call For Comment“It is always difficult to say "I would love to volunteer, but I am also in the process of looking for full time work" - so that balance between wanting to help an organization and looking out for oneself is quite hard. I don't want to lose an opportunity to network and get some more experience and I don't want them to think that I will "work for free" forever.” - Shane E. Stephenson, Graduate UW Milwaukee Archival Studies Program

Rebecca Potance 2012 Survey on Internships“Of course it is important (necessary) for students to put theory into practice, but I don't think at academic archival programs are realistic about the definition of "value," and are encouraging (at least passively) their students to lower their standards of self-worth upon entering the professional field.” MLIS student, unpaid intern

SNAP Continuing Discussions“I've been an advocate of an apprenticeship model for a long time. If I had to ditch the schooling or the free labor, I'd ditch the school without hesitation, and I don't know if we can discuss internships without taking into consideration the state of higher ed. in general, the MLIS in particular, and the perception of expertise and the value of the profession.” Maria Lin, MLIS 2013 (emphasis mine)

Sponsor’s Responsibility“. . . if a college student is paying a course fee to intern, it is the responsibility of the supervising archivist to prepare a useful internship experience or, if not at the student's institution, to pass on hosting an internship unless they are willing to make it useful. It's not fair to the student to have them pay for a lousy internship.” – Greg Jackson, Archivist, Bryn Anthyn College
