Description
One of the strengths of small liberal arts colleges is the potential for rich faculty-student collaborative research at the undergraduate level. Our joint program between the Library and the Office of the Dean of Faculty at Connecticut College is rapidly building a strong community of practice in digital scholarship where previously there was none. The program brings three faculty members together with staff from across the library's departments, including research librarians, archivists, instructional technologists, and programmers, for three semesters. The program supports projects that promote faculty-student collaboration across the lifecycle of a digital research project through course assignments, independent studies, and summer research assistantships.
