Tools and Resources

Distinguished Lecturer Series is sponsored by the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences. “Its challenge is to share the excitement of research and creative activity more generally in ways that stimulate the minds of students and faculty from the full spectrum of campus. It will also provide a forum for graduate students, enhancing their profile on the campus.”

Government Documents Speaker Series. The Speaker Series events are designed to highlight a collection of primary source materials that scholars, students, and other professionals use in the course of their work. We also hope to provide a forum for discussion and for the exchange of ideas on a variety of topics. The events have been videotaped for addition to the Library's permanent collection for further study and viewing.
