The Church History Library of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints digitizes, describes, and provides online access to as much of its holdings as possible. We identify and describe people, places, and events in millions of images from published materials and archival collections. Our metadata is derived from paper and electronic indices and the digital content itself. We make these records available via the Church History Catalog, Church History Biographical Database, FamilySearch, and other platforms.
We are looking for a candidate with the education, experience, and passion to help create and transform this metadata, and to assist employees and volunteers by performing quality assurance reviews and providing feedback. Our team’s mission is to improve the discoverability and usability of archival records in the Church History Catalog, Church History Biographical Database, and other research tools offered by the Church History Library.
This is a paid, part-time (28-hour per week), hourly position.

The Book of Mormon Studies Association (BoMSA) is pleased to announce its seventh annual meeting, to be held on October 5–7, 2023, at Utah State University. The event is sponsored by USU’s Department of Religious Studies and with thanks to Patrick Mason, the Leonard J. Arrington Chair of Mormon History and Culture. This annual event gathers a variety of scholars invested in serious academic study of the Book of Mormon. It has no particular theme but instead invites papers on any subject related to the Book of Mormon from any viable academic angle.
This year’s two keynote addresses will be delivered by Matt Harris (Colorado State University, Pueblo) and Farina King and Michael Ing (University of Oklahoma, Indiana University). A plenary session on restoration branches will feature Kyle Beshears and Christopher Blythe. We plan to open this year’s conference with a pre-conference exhibit of the Printer’s Manuscript of the Book of Mormon at the Church History Library on Thursday afternoon. Conference participants might also be interested in attending the Leonard J. Arrington Mormon History Lecture on Thursday evening. Although not Book of Mormon themed, the lecture will be delivered by Jared Farmer, a leading historian of American culture and the environment, discussing Mormon music.
We invite the submission of papers and proposals for inclusion in the 2023 conference program. Note that newcomers to the organization are required to submit a full paper for consideration, while those who have presented at any of the previous conferences are free to submit a proposal or a paper. Papers submitted should be no longer than 4000 words, while proposals should be between 500 and 750 words.
The submission deadline is June 1, 2023.
