The Library is pleased to announce the 2nd Annual Library Prize for Undergraduate Research. The Prize encourages the use of Library resources, to enhance the development of library research techniques, and to honor the best research projects produced each year by Temple University undergraduate students.

Up to three projects are selected each year to win $1000. Winning entries exhibit: originality, depth, breadth, or sophistication in the use of library collections; exceptional ability to select, evaluate, synthesize, and utilize library resources in the creation of a project in any media; and evidence of personal growth through the acquisition of newfound knowledge.

The Prize is jointly sponsored by the Library and the Office of the Provost.

For deadlines, selection criteria, application requirements, and past winners (including the winning papers), see the Prize website.
