University Libraries’ Undergraduate Research Fellowship is an opportunity for students with an interest in academic research to work with a library mentor and experience the pivotal role of libraries in academic research. Projects may address a range of subject areas and can result in learning objects, digital images, curated exhibits, or performances. Experiences vary, but may include work with scholarly communication, metadata, primary resources and artifacts (as found in our Archives or Special Collections), development of open education resources, knowledge discovery tools, bibliography/resource curation of a discipline, digitization, and more. This is a paid summer fellowship for a 10 week; 40 hours/week project, paid hourly.
