The Booth Library Awards for Excellence in Student Research and Creativity program was developed by the Library Advisory Board to promote and recognize excellence in student research. The research program encourages students to enhance their studies by utilizing the wealth of information available at Booth Library and other information venues. All entries were original works completed by Eastern students within the last twelve months. The award recipients were selected on the basis of excellence, creativity, and the use of research resources. The selected entries have now become part of Booth Library’s Excellence in Student Research and Creativity Collection, and will be made available to library patrons.
