Monroe Library Student Research Competition

Have you been working on a research project that uses the library's wide array of resources in interesting or novel ways?

The Monroe Library Student Research Competition recognizes and rewards students who make exemplary use of the collections, resources, and services of the J. Edgar & Louise S. Monroe Library throughout the research process in order to produce an academic or creative work. You can view information about past winners. The committee is especially eager to receive submissions representing the range of Loyola's academic programs and their approaches to research. Creative or innovative work in any format or discipline is eligible.
