Our editorial interns are an invaluable help in managing the gazillion digital books that enter and leave our virtual office. They upload books, format reviews, and enter bibliographic info into our database—all while becoming familiar with publishing trends. They fact-check reviews, newsletters, and articles, and sometimes do some writing of their own. They take on oddball projects like poring over back issues to track down an old editorial (especially as we continue our Horn Book centennial celebrations!).
The next application deadline, for the Spring 2025 internship, is November 4, 2024. Our internship is paid ($15 per hour) and is approximately fifteen to twenty hours per week. To apply, send a resume, cover letter, and contact information for a professional reference (employer or professor) to Monica de los Reyes (mdelosreyes at hbook dot com).
