Project in the Center of Alcohol Studies library needs your help to share 50-year experience at Rutgers online
The CAS Library has launched a project to honor renowned researchers and legendary characters associated with the Center and the Journal of Studies on Alcohol and Drugs, starting from the roots, the Yale Center of Alcohol Studies. Following up on Dr. Robert Pandina’s presentation entitled The Birth of the “Science” of Alcohol Studies in the United States: The Role of the Center of Alcohol Studies at Yale and Rutgers, we are planning to dedicate a page on the CAS site to Jellinek, Haggard, Keller, Greenberg, and more.
This project would give us a great opportunity to showcase the wealth of resources in the CAS Archives, as well as promote the Center’s current research, training and educational activities, and programs.
The Library has been working on creating protocols and best practices to locate, digitize, and disseminate important and remarkable documents, images, and objects to display on the web site. We’d like to have your input on the idea, and kindly ask for your cooperation to point us to the direction of noteworthy pieces to digitize, or lend them for a short period, if you have any. An example of what we have in mind in terms of format is pictured below.
