Collaboration Spaces

The Digital Scholarship Studio is located at the heart of the first floor of Kennedy Library. This multi-functional space encompasses our Research Help Desk, a collaborative meeting space with computer workstations, and two group study rooms. We also host workshops in classroom 35-103, across the atrium from the Studio.

Join our community by participating in our workshops or by working in our space.

Research Life Cycle

The Digital Scholarship Studio supports scholars through the entire research and creative process and across disciplinary boundaries. Situated within the library, we guide scholars to think critically about available digital tools and information resources and prepare them to engage with multiple audiences.

Six parts of the process: collaboration (who are you prioritizing and how are you collaborating?), inspiration (what is possible?), development (what tools could you use to gather your information?), critical assessment (what could be better?), creation (what tools could you use to share your information gathered?), and publication (how and to whom to disseminate your scholarship).

Gratitude and Appreciation

The Digital Scholarship Studio is made possible through generous donor funding from alumni and the community. It is that continuous support which sustains the library’s commitment to student success and advances the Teacher-Scholar model. The Digital Scholarship Studio will continue to utilize cutting-edge technology and advance critical pedagogy with the support of donor contributions.
