About
The UBC Undergraduate Prize in Library Research is a way to showcase students’ effective and innovative use of library services, information experts and resources provided by the UBC Library. Applications for these prizes also provide students with an opportunity to reflect on their information-seeking experience, showcase their research beyond the classroom, and promote scholarship excellence at the undergraduate level at the University of British Columbia.
The Prize was established by UBC Library to encourage more and deeper use of its resources and collections, to advance information literacy at UBC, and to promote academic excellence at UBC.
The Undergraduate Prize in Library Research recognizes excellence in course-based research papers or projects that show evidence of:
- Significant inquiry using the UBC library, its resources, and collections
- Significant learning about the research and information-gathering process itself
