Research Port is retiring! Research Port (a Library tool for finding journals and databases) will no longer be available starting January 2019.

Instead, use A-to-Z Journal List to locate journals and A-to-Z Databases List to locate databases.  These tools are available under the “Search & Find” menu.

*Note: Some print journals may not be indexed in A-to-Z Journal List. Check the Library Catalog Journal Search to verify if we have a journal in print format.

Special Collections Invites Applications for Undergraduate Research Award

The Friends of the Library & Gallery is inaugurating a $500 award for undergraduates to do research in the library’s Special Collections.  Projects that make substantial onsite use of the Special Collections in any area ranging from the photography collections to the biological sciences archives, and from the rare books to the science fiction holdings are eligible for consideration by the committee charged with judging the applications.  Applicants must submit a project statement, a writing sample, and a letter of recommendation for them and their project from a faculty mentor.  The applications and accompanying materials must be submitted to Chief Curator Tom Beck by November 12, 2015 for funding during the spring semester 2016. 

Lois Kuhn Romeo, Chair of the Friends Council, said that the group is delighted to offer support to student researchers in Special Collections.  “UMBC is nationally recognized as an innovator in undergraduate research, and the Friends wishes to recognize talented students by giving them support in doing their research,” Ms. Romeo remarked.  Acting Director of the Library & Gallery Joyce Tenney said: “The Special Collections have excellent holdings and superb staff that will be pleased to give the Friends award winners the benefit of their expertise.”  

Questions may be sent to Tom Beck by telephone (x53827) or email (beck@umbc.edu).
