This presentation reimagines the role of graduate student labor in complex, library-wide digital scholarship projects by defining a new model of librarian/graduate student partnership. Through our work on a community oral history project at a public, urban university, we offer structures, workflows, and values that lead to a successful digital collection and exhibit and more importantly, meaningful work for residential and remote graduate student employees. Find out how librarians can adopt a mentor/mentee relationship to work side-by-side with graduate student workers on library-wide projects that allow graduate students to take ownership of tasks and gain relevant work experience.
