"What I really liked about this internship was
that I was the allowed to function as an independent librarian within a
controlled learning environment. I was able to “be the boss,” per se,
and make the decisions, but I was still able to ask questions, get
feedback and suggestions, and not feel like I was completely alone. I
feel that I was able to thrive in this sort of environment, and I
couldn’t have asked for a better way to spend my summer." Nicole Jordan 2009 Ensemble Librarian Intern Philadelphia Orchestra Library Fellow |

"As an aspiring academic music librarian, I found the music reference internship in Fennell Music Library to be an extremely valuable learning experience. Working with Interlochen's students and faculty in this art-centered environment was incredibly rewarding."
