The 2024
Connecticut College
Prize for

Research
$500 Award | Applications due 3/08/2024 | Winners published in Digital Commons
Every complete application is judged independently by each member of the Library Prize Committee according to the evaluation criteria (See Evaluation Criteria). Scores are then analyzed, averaged, and ranked to determine an overall winner or winners and any runners-up.
The committee aims to be composed of several librarians and ideally three faculty members representing the broad branches of study consisting in the arts and humanities, the sciences, and the social sciences.
This year's committee was formed in the throes of the global COVID pandemic, so membership is not as robust as in years past:
Kate Bengtson, Instructional Technology Specialist
Fred Folmer, Director of Collections and Resource Management
Andrew Lopez, Research Support Librarian, Government Documents Coordinator
Di Luo, Chu-Niblack Assistant Professor of Art History and Architectural Studies
Ariela McCaffrey, Research Support & Outreach Librarian
