Dear SEELANGers,

I am a graduate student in Georgetown's Russian area studies program and
am looking into pursuing a career in library/information sciences
generally, and possibly archiving and preservation, specifically.

Does anyone know if there are such non-Russian (in nationality) creatures
who work mainly with Russian sources in the broad area of "information
sciences"?  Any info, anecdotal or otherwise, would be most appreciated.
I would like to stress I am not looking to land a job at this point, but
simply trying to get an idea of what's out there.

Further, since I strongly suspect I will be in for more schooling if I go
this route, any info on library/information science programs with a
cross-cultural component would be of interest too.  (I am, of course,
also checking out the great resources the Washington area has to offer,
such as the National Archives, Smithsonian, Library of Congress, etc.)

Thanks!

Ann Otto
