Position Summary

World Wildlife Fund (WWF), one of the world’s leading conservation organizations, seeks a graduate-level intern with library science expertise to help design a cataloging system and begin organizing books, reports, and archival materials for the new WWF Legacy Library. The intern will apply library science principles and current cataloging practices to record, manage, and classify a wide range of materials—including books, reports, flyers, and brochures—in order to create a library that preserves and showcases WWF’s history in ways that are engaging, accessible, and easy for staff to use for reference and inspiration.

Present the draft system to the Legacy Library Committee and WWF leadership for final approval.

  • Draft recommendations for ongoing library acquisition, management, and lending procedures following the classification system above and submit to the Legacy Library Committee as a final report for the internship.

Learning Outcomes

The intern will gain experience assessing materials, making descriptive decisions, organizing library space efficiently, and adapting library science principles and best practices to design the classification system, catalogue, and library procedures for a large non-profit organization.
