At the West Virginia & Regional History Center, student internships provide opportunities to work directly with historical collections, gain practical skills, deepen understanding of the past, and often discover new ways to interpret and share history with the WVU and Morgantown community.

As part of our efforts to expand access to important historical resources and materials, the academic year 2025-26 WVRHC Rare Book Intern, Bonnie Martinez, created an online research guide of rare books in the WVRHC collection that contain themes of race and racism, the African diaspora, Black culture, and more.
