Summer interns make big changes at AZGS


This summer we had as many as 9 student interns working around AZGS doing everything from restructuring the core repository to digitizing publications, configuring computers, inventorying bookstore publications, and georeferencing Arizona theses maps. Things we've wanted to do for years suddenly were getting done almost overnight.

We filled four large trucks with surplus materials and created space for all the new staff joining the geothermal data project as well as for new cores.

It's gotten a lot quieter here in the past week as our students headed back to school but the changes and improvements around the building are striking
