Week 1 of WINTERNS

Hi! I’m Abby and I am working as a collections “wintern” for the next month. I’m a senior at Goucher College here in Baltimore and a Communications major. So far in my winternship I’ve learned the basics of PastPerfect, and worked on the 2007 and 2008 accession records. This gives me the opportunity to see what gifts and donations have been made to the museum over the past couple years and how they are processed in the museum’s system. The gifts are so different, but each is important to Jewish history in Baltimoer. It’s been a great first few days and I look forward to what I’ll do next!
