The staff of LTS welcomes working with faculty members on projects incorporating library and technology resources in their research and instruction.
Below are some examples of collaboration between LTS, faculty, and students.
If you have an interest in working with LTS on your own project, start by contacting your subject liaison.
John Plotz, Associate Professor of English
Spring 2008
During the spring 2008 semester, students from Professor John Plotz’s course “Birth of the Short Story” (English 40B) set out to locate or “re-discover” a forgotten short story from the nineteenth century that they thought worthy of republication. Working collaboratively, the students delved into the print and digital resources available to them through the Brandeis library to produce modern editions of their chosen stories in a variety of formats, including print, Web, and video.
The Birth of the Short Story blog gives an inside look at some of these republication projects. In their posts, students have excerpted their original republication projects, described how they “discovered” their stories, analyzed the assignment and the implications of Web publishing, and explained why they want their projects to be available beyond the Brandeis community.
