Now Accepting Applications for the DHPSNY Mentorship Program!

We're excited to accounce a new round of the DHPSNY Mentorship Program for cohorts that will meet from September – November 2024. The DHPSNY Mentorship Program establishes mentorship circles to support individuals across New York State who care for historical records and unique library research collections or who are pursuing an MLIS degree. Each circle consists of four to six individuals at varying stages in their careers, including students, new and emerging professionals, established practitioners, and volunteers. These circles offer valuable opportunities for professional growth, networking, and sharing best practices, among other benefits. For more information about the program, visit dhpsny.org/mentorship.

To apply, please complete this application form by Friday, August 23, 2024. Space in the program is limited, and we will make every effort to match individuals to groups that best suit their needs. If you are not placed in a mentorship circle this cycle, you will receive preference in the next cycle.

After submitting your application, you will receive a confirmation email. If you do not receive it, please contact Liyah Desher, DHPSNY Education & Outreach Specialist, or call 215-545-0613 (ext. 317) to ensure that we have received your application and have your correct contact information. 

We will follow up with all applicants no later than September 1, 2024.
