2024. We seek an individual with expertise in Russian language, history,

*Late Cold War Era Open-Source Intelligence Russian Cataloging (Onsite)* -
Russia Section

*Project Description:* This project allows a Junior Fellow to process the
Russia Section’s NASIC collection of late Soviet and early Russian
Federation scientific and technical books. These books represent a time
capsule of Russian publishing that spans the years surrounding the fall of
the USSR. As tools of the American intelligence community, these materials
contain translated summaries, notes, and marginalia reflecting late Cold
War international relations. Working with Librarians, the Junior Fellow
will create initial bibliographic records and perform descriptive
cataloging. By increasing the accuracy and completeness of bibliographic
records, the Junior Fellow will aid in increasing discoverability and
availability of less-known items to researchers, scholars, and the general
public. While gaining valuable hands-on experience in cataloging and
library work, the Junior Fellow will have an opportunity to conduct
research on a topic of their choice, such as late Soviet publishing, Soviet
technical advancements, and/or the use of open-source materials in
international studies and intelligence.

Please submit your application materials to the USAJobs listing for “*2025
Junior Fellows Program (Onsite Internship)*” for consideration. The project
you or your students will be applying to is titled: Late Cold War Era
Open-Source Intelligence Russian Cataloging (Onsite
