Hey Everyone,

I just heard about a great opportunity for anyone looking for a temporary position.  I spoke to the contact person for this and it sounds good for anyone, student or working professional, with a little experience (and interest, of course) in accurate metadata entry for a large collection.  Looks like a great project to be involved with, so take a look
