ABSTRACT
The article offers a model for library-centered undergraduate engagement with digital scholarship based on two years of successful implementation at Lafayette College. Librarians designed a competitive six-week summer internship where undergraduate students built their own digital research projects. Through their original projects, students practiced traditional research methods and simultaneously explored subfields of digital scholarship. The article’s topics include the relationship between digital scholarship and information literacy, the library’s role in facilitating digital scholarship, and the internship’s design and execution. The article also includes reflections and recommendations for sustainable implementation.
