The author spent one year at the Harvard-Yenching Library on an internship, beginning in March 2007. He prepared a catalog of Japanese rare books for publication, attended meetings and library conferences, made site visits to other libraries,and reported his findings in real time through a blog. Some of the benefits of long-term internship in a foreign library include gaining experience with communicating and exchanging information (not just receiving but also giving), experiencing services from an insider's perspective, and gaining a better appreciation for the reasons for developing these services as well as their negative aspects. The author also considers issues such as the relationship between internships and career paths, public access to internship reports, and the value of sharing information about internship activities.
