Life Sciences

Potential projects include:

  • Create a virtual guide of library materials from the circulating collection and archives that places historical lantern slides from the OSU Biological Museum into context for teaching and learning. This includes learning how to digitize and describe the lantern slides from Dr. Borror, a preeminent entomologist at OSU (https://blb.osu.edu/), pairing those slides with existing animal recordings, and learning proper conservation techniques for historical material.
  • Create an bibliography of material at the OSU Herbarium Library so that people can find this material more easily. This may include assessing other OSU circulating library and archival collections for complementary materials, as well as free on-line resources.

Location: Biological Sciences and Pharmacy Library

Faculty Librarian: Amanda Rinehart, Assistant Professor, is the Life Sciences Librarian that works closely with the OSU Biological Museum and the OSU Herbarium Library.
