Wayne State Student Goes Treasure Hunting at Yellowstone National Park

---

Abstract

Last summer I took an internship at the Yellowstone Research Library in Gardiner, Montana, right outside Yellowstone National Park. My M.L.I.S. program requires a practicum, but I did not want to wait another year to get more experience. So I returned to dorm living for the first time since my freshman year of undergrad, saw amazing landscapes and animals, and most importantly, received hands-on experience in a research library. The Yellowstone Research Library is located in a relatively new building, called the Heritage and Research Center. This building also houses the park’s museum storage, a herbarium, a number of labs, and the archives of the park administration (affiliated with the National Archives and Records Administration), as well as records from concessioners, personal manuscript collections, and more.
