Research Support [1]
A librarian, professor, or student can contact CRL’s Mary Wilke [2], with a question or problem. She can help identify:
- material of interest to the researcher
- material for classroom use
- specific pieces needed from a set
- possible material for purchase using one of the Cooperative Resource Development Programs [3]
- possible donors to digital projects
- partners to supply missing material for digital project.
This support has resulted in:
- Identifying material from the Hamburgishes Kolonialinstitut [4] for a professor interested in German colonialism
- Identifying English-language Middle Eastern newspapers for an undergraduate class using the Six-Day War to teach historical methods [5]
- Identifying reels of a missionary archive microform set to be purchased through the Demand Purchase Program [6] for a student dissertation
- Finding a donor willing to supply missing issues of the Federal Reserve Bulletin [7] for a digital project at the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis
