• Abstract:
  Summer Transportation Internship Program for Diverse Groups (STIPDG) intern Madeleine Poche spent ten weeks interning at the National Transportation Library’s Archives under the mentorship of Archivist/Historian Eden Orelove. In this TLR, Poche presents the four projects that comprised the internship: assisting in processing the Secretary of Transportation Speeches collection; creating social media content for NTL’s X account; assisting with Archives-hosted events; and writing web content for the NTL Archives future web pages. Poche reflects on the highlights of working with U.S. Department of Transportation archival materials and the variety of experiences during the internship.
