Subject: Libraries' Undergraduate and IDEA research awards ($1000) is now
open

Description:
The University of Maryland Libraries will grant up to four $1000 awards to
undergraduates who
impress us with their use of library materials in their research. These
awards aim to promote the
value and use of library services and information resources.

UMD Libraries seek to recognize and empower students to explore diversity
issues, educate
themselves, and inspire others to advance social justice by embracing the
Inclusion, Diversity,
Equity and Accessibility (IDEA) values through research.

One award — the IDEA award — will be granted to a research paper that
explores issues of
diversity, including but not limited to race/ethnicity, gender identity,
religious heritage, socio-
economic status, first-generation university students, veterans,
disability/ableism, ageism,
national origin/immigration status, indigenous heritage, sexual orientation,
etc.

Essays and projects of winning students will be included in the Digital
Repository at the
University of Maryland (DRUM).

More information can be found on our website. The application closes March 7.
