Description: Several types of projects have been indentified
as potentially useful additions to the library webpages. A team
of 2-3 interns should work together to determine what the projects
have in common and what aspects of each project may be unique.
Final work on projects may be done as group or individual projects.
Interns will help determine which of these projects should be
completed in the time allotted
- Utilizing digital scans of 35mm slides that the Director uses
for talks about library history, create a web-based presentation
for linking to the library web pages.
- Create a "virtual tour" or digital slide show that features
the library system as a whole. The project would involve taking
digital photographs of the library buildings, including both
exterior and interior shots. The photos would be mounted on
the library web pages, with brief descriptions. Instruction
in photographic techniques will be provided as part of the project.

named for individual donors who contributed to building Mudd.
