Biography
Jackie began her adventure at the Archive when she joined a ragtag group of volunteers on a CD digitization project in 2014 while applying to a Masters in Library & Information Science program. As the first of her six internships for her MLIS she was pulled into the vortex of magnetic media at the Archive, helping to process collections of VHS, Beta, BetaCam-SP, DAT tapes, and audio cassettes. In October of 2015 Jackie began working at the Archive as a Book Scanner by helping to test updates in cameras and scanning software, and as part of the Admin team by processing TV News loans and compiling the Internet Archive newsletter. In 2016 Jackie became a Processing Archivist by helping partners to organize, identify, and create metadata for their personal papers while providing direction to the scanning team on care and handling of these rare materials.
