The Library is now accepting applications for the 2009 Patricia Lindell Scholar! The scholarship is open to all junior and senior students and includes a $1,200 award. The recipient will also work with Professors Julie Gilbert and Dan Mollner during spring semester to examine leisure reading on campus, specifically by investigating barriers to recreational reading and determining how the Library can better address and overcome those barriers.
The recipient will have an opportunity to conduct independent research and help give direction to the Library’s future endeavors regarding reading promotion. The scholarship is especially appropriate for anyone who loves to read and would like more experience conducting in-depth research.
Applications are available at the circulation desk in the Library. If you have any questions, please don’t hesitate to contact Julie Gilbert (jgilber2@gustavus.edu) or Dan Mollner (dmollner@gustavus.edu). The due date for submission is December 8.
