Page history last edited by Melissa A. Hofmann 2 mos ago

Welcome to the RESEARCH COMMITTEE website!               part of College and University Section 

   FY 2010:    July 1, 2009 to June 30, 2010

 

Research Committee's Mission

The Research Committee promotes research among librarians in the State of NJ.  It does so by sponsoring two juried events each year.   Each is tied to the NJLA Conference Research Forum held at the NJLA Annual Meeting each April.  The Research Award honors a New Jersey librarian by presenting a monetary award for the best published research from the previous year. The Research Forum winners present their work-in-progress as a short talk at the Research Forum.  The Research Committee remains dedicated to seeking ways that support and encourage sharing information about research projects on a wide variety of topics from all types of libraries.
 
The Research Committee is the joint committee of NJLA's College & University Section and the NJ Chapter of ACRL.  As a committee of CUS, we provide opportunities for academic librarians to become actively involved in projects, professional development activities and in the general development of the academic organization.
