Abstract
Scholarship@Claremont has stretched the Digital Commons software structure to support undergraduate research in many emerging forms and formats; from intercollegiate program senior theses, collections of “great works,” multimedia senior theses, to mandates for deposit of entire colleges’ senior theses. The librarians have also integrated undergraduate research into curriculum collaboration and information literacy education. The presenter will discuss these topics and ways in which the collection and dissemination of undergraduate research has been a learning experience and continues to inform Claremont’s practices.
