Diary of a Special Collections Intern

For eight weeks in 2018, as part of the Hope Internship Programme, I was employed as Special Collections Assistant at Liverpool Hope University’s Sheppard-Worlock Library. Each week I recorded and reflected on my experience, thoughts, and hopes. Below you can find an index to my posts from all eight weeks, my blog piece for Liverpool Hope, and an update of my experience in the department.
