Libraries are the awesome sauce! Unfortunately, Undergraduate researchers and their research providers are not always aware of just how awesome libraries are. This presentation focuses on the relationship between SWOSU libraries and undergraduate researchers. Phillip Fitzsimmons, SWOSU Reference and Digitization Librarian and Assistant Professor, will present some of the resources available at SWOSU, with a special focus on the Digital Commons platform. Hector Lucas, SWOSU Undecided Undergraduate, will present his research project, “Video Archiving Software Engineering Project Updates,” with a focus on how SWOSU libraries provide support. Jeremy Evert will discuss how the students and library have worked together, and how the SWOSU Computer Science program is benefitting from this project. Software Engineering projects include High Performance Computing Applications, use of Jupyter Notebooks with the NCAR Command Line, analytics, and web site design. The will present examples of work from the students, talk through some of the embargo and permission issues, and host a question and answer session.
