The Paul Robeson Library Undergraduate Research Award was launched in 2021 to recognize excellence in undergraduate research at Rutgers University-Camden. The Undergraduate Research Award is open to undergraduate students from any school at Rutgers-Camden. Individual or team applicants submit an original research project in any form as well as a reflective essay that describes their search strategy and evaluation of sources. This digital collection houses the winning projects, which were selected because they make use of a range of library resources, collections, and services and show evidence of critical thinking, originality, and creativity.
