Summer 2026 Help
Hello-I know this is somewhat late in the game but I am feeling somewhat desperate! I am a current junior in undergrad who has been struggling to find things to do this summer which could potentially help my hopeful future career in archives. I have been applying to lots of various museums and archive internships all semester with no luck : ( I have also been reaching out to some smaller local archives and have not heard anything back (honestly a bit confused/disheartened by this) but was wondering if anyone has any advice for potential ways to fill my summer that could be useful and maybe help my resume eek. Or any opportunities anyone knows about for the summer. I am in the Chicago area if this helps for anything specific! I am starting to get pretty stressed and hopeless, so any advice is super appreciated !!
Also apologies if this is not the right place for this post
