The Newberry Library offers two undergraduate programs:
Both programs provide unique opportunities for students to use the Library’s collections to pursue interdisciplinary humanities research.
We also offer two paid internships for undergraduate students who will be between their junior and senior years in the summer of 2008. Click here for more information on these internships.

The ACM program, sponsored by the Associated Colleges of the Midwest offers a semester long fall seminar and a series of one month seminars during the winter and spring terms. Seminars are offered on a wide variety of topics, but all seminars are designed to allow students to create their own research project appropriate to the Newberry Library collections. |

The NLUS program, sponsored by DePaul University, Loyola University Chicago, Roosevelt University, and the University of Illinois, Chicago, offers Chicago area undergraduates a semester-long humanities seminar each year from January to May. The seminar involves common reading assignments, research in the Library’s collections and a major research paper and carries the credit of two courses. Seminars are team-taught and topics change from year to year. Each class is limited to twenty participants who are assigned individual study areas and are encouraged to work closely with Library staff.
