After returning to Germany for a five year stint at the University of Göttingen in Germany, Joerg entered into employment with the American Geographical Society in 1911, where he would remain until 1937 when he left the Society to accept the post of Chief of the Division of Maps and Charts in the National Archives and Record Administration in Washington, D.C.
