Another thing to consider: are you an employee or a contractor?  If the
latter, so make sure you ask for enough to cover additional taxes, and
any benefits that you consider absolutely necessary, that would normally
be paid by an employer.

Typically, the archive profession tries to keep on par with librarian's
salaries/hourly wages.  The starting hourly wage for a librarian in New
Jersey is $23.78/hour however, it also depends on your qualifications,
i.e., degrees, certifications, etc.  You will want to find out what the
starting hourly wage of New York is but I would say ask for at least
$20-24.
