We Need An Archivist - No Experience Necessary

Our show, like the other shows on Coop, is done on a volunteer basis. I'm very excited about how the blog has been looking, but it is the result of a couple of hours work a week on my part, on top of all the other little jobs I have on my plate. I'm looking for someone who is interested in learning how to work with mp3, video, image and audio files, edit them, then upload them to www.poetryradio.blogspot.com on a weekly basis.
The position requires access to a fairly up-to-date computer system and high speed internet. It can be done from home at anytime. Or you can make arrangements to come into the station and use the computer here.
At first it might take about 3 - 4 hrs a week to learn what to do, but once you get the basics down you can reasonably do the job in less than 2 hrs.
All training and software (Adobe Photoshop, Blogger, Sound Forge) is provided and we'll even throw in a membership to Coop radio.
This is a great opportunity to learn new skills and sharpen the ones you already have - not to mention perform an important service to the Vancouver Spoken Word community!
You can also join us on air on Wednesdays and be part of the on-air experience, too.

For more information, feel free to contact me at srduncan@shaw.ca or give me a call at 604-788-8340.
