Proposal to extend the contract of Project Archivist to complete processing of three environmental collections that was disrupted by the pandemic. With the pandemic, she has been put in remote work status with the rest of the staff and has been unable to resume physical processing of the collections. Since physical processing of the collections was the purpose of her position, this work will not be able to get done without an extension to her original contract. Our campus is planning to slowly reopen starting in July. We therefore anticipate losing a total of 4 months (March through June) of her 12 month contract period during which she assisted with remote work activities rather than her primary duties. The money from this grant would fund an extension, the collections processing work will be completed and we will be able to keep the promise we made to donors when they funded this project position. |
