The award, made possible by the Friends of EKU Libraries, recognizes students whose research makes expert and creative use of library services, resources, and collections to produce a scholarly or creative work. The award demonstrates the excellence of undergraduate research here at Eastern, as well as EKU Libraries’ contribution to that research. The First Place award is $1000 and one Honorable Mention will be awarded $500.
IMPORTANT: If you are even considering applying for the award, the first thing you should do is ask your instructor or project mentor to write a letter of support. See the Guidelines for Students tab for info on Supporting Letters and the full application requirements.
