Dear Hiring Supervisor,

I am interested in applying for a Library Technician position in the

Cleveland Museum of Art. The skills that I have acquired from work and

academic studies support a strong ability in archival processing,

administrative work, history, art history, verbal and written

communication, computer literacy, organizational and supervisory skills and

public relations. I have primarily performed organizational duties in

almost every volunteer and employment position that I have held during my

life.

I have completed an Associates Degree in Interior Design and a

Bachelor Degree in Art History. I possess a working knowledge of the

Internet, MS Word, Excel, Word Perfect, Adobe Photoshop, Power Point, MAS

90, Outlook and QuickBooks. I was recently employed as an

Archivist/Receptionist at ChanTest Corporation, where I was the Primary

Archivist for safety testing studies, facility and equipment records,

training records and SOP's. I am also in charge of maintaining and

releasing the SOPS and the forms for the company. I was previously

employed at The Western Reserve Historical Society as a LTV Steel Project

Manuscripts Processor for the Library Archives. I have worked as an intern

at Hale Farm & Village and the Berea Historical Society and have

volunteered at Shaker Historical Museum. During my internships and

volunteerism, I have performed the duties of a designer, a space planner,

an historian, a registrar, a researcher, a tour guide, an archivist, an

accessions assistant, a computer program trainer, and have worked within

the computer database systems of some of these organizations. I have

worked for many years in administrative, secretarial and receptionist

positions, as a cashier, and a ceramic tile salesperson.

I would very much like an opportunity to speak with you regarding a

position in your fine establishment. My resume and references are enclosed

for your review. Thank you for your consideration.

Sincerely,

Martha A. Boska
