As technology evolves, uncommon collaborations across engineering, geography, and computer science are increasingly driving progress in geospatial technologies and their applications in everyday life.

Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies programs foster close relationships - and career pathways - with Dartmouth Libraries. One longstanding relationship is with Librarian Jill Baron, who teaches a graduate seminar for the Comparative Literature course. She works closely with students to help them develop their projects and take advantage of the institution's collections.

The Libraries recently hosted an open panel called "Sparking Conversations: University Presses and the State of Scholarly Publishing.” Guest speakers included university press directors Amy Brand from MIT, Christie Henry '91 from Princeton, and Charles Wilkinson from the University of Michigan, giants in scholarly publishing. They shared challenges and opportunities arising from the shifting scholarly publishing landscape and ways they are actively transforming the field and championing action within their institutions and the scholarly ecosystem.

Dartmouth Libraries has a new collaborative teaching and learning space - The LINK! Discover how one Dartmouth professor partnered with library specialists in The LINK to blend history and science while sparking new ideas and knowledge.

“After traveling just an hour West, we saw something dark on the horizon...and by aid of the glasses saw that it was 'the lost one'...We bundled her on the sled and brought her home, where she now sits, moping. Crawford tried to ascertain what her objective in leaving was and where she had been but to no avail” (page 39).

We're excited to share that work is underway to refresh and redesign the Dartmouth Libraries website. 

While the Home and About pages have had the most significant transformation thus far, you'll notice other web pages reflect the same typography, artwork, and stylistic updates. These design elements result from an intensive twelve-week project to update Dartmouth Libraries' Visual Identity. 

Famously quoted, Helen Keller wrote, “Alone we can do so little. Together, we can do so much.” Her words exemplify the collaborative work librarians do with students, faculty, staff, and researchers across Dartmouth and beyond. For two years running, one such collaboration continues to build awareness -  and appetites - for STEM at Dartmouth, National Chemistry Week.
