Internship Stipend & Copyright Webinar March 23 ARCS Update Vol 7 | Update 5
March 7, 2022 | ARCS NewsARCS Internship Stipend
ARCS is committed to advocating for paid internships in an industry that remains inaccessible to many. We understand that internships are often necessary to begin a career in museums and we feel strongly that that work should be paid. Starting in Fall 2021, ARCS awarded a $1,000 stipend plus an annual membership to two applicants pursuing internships in registration and/or collections management. The goal of the stipend program is to alleviate some of the financial burden that students often have to bear in order to begin their careers in this field.
We are thrilled to continue this initiative and welcome qualified applicants to apply for the Summer 2022 term using the link below. Applications are due by April 4 and winners will be notified in mid-April.

Copyright Across Borders
March 23, 2022 1:00 p.m. - 3:00 p.m. ET
Managing copyright is a key responsibility of caring for collections, and it is critical to understand that copyright is an issue that affects registrars and collections specialists on a cross-global scale. The webinar will begin with a brief practical introduction to copyright law, but will focus on copyright in an international setting.
The panelists will discuss the public domain, and fair use/fair dealing, and delve into copyright conundrums in collections acquisitions and exhibition management in various regions of the world. Attendees will be presented with resources, methodologies, and examples to navigate the various licensing options and ever-changing uses affecting collections stewardship.
The webinar will conclude with a longer than usual Q&A session, roughly 20 minutes in length, to address questions, concerns, and doubts from the attendees.
