Macalester Digital Scholarship Initiatives
CLIC Digital Collections
The Cooperating Libraries In Consortium, (CLIC) is a non-profit federation of the libraries of eight private colleges and universities in Saint Paul and Minneapolis, Minnesota. The members of this consortium have chosen to make a variety of unique collections more readily available in digitally searchable and accessible versions. The collections you find here are widely varied and continually growing, and include audio, visual, and textual resources.
Digital Commons
DigitalCommons@Macalester College is a project that highlights college scholarship of various types (working papers, journal articles, dissertations and theses, etc.). Our project is part of an open access initiative and we feel by providing open access to the scholarly and creative works produced by Macalester students, faculty, and staff we not only increase the visibility of our scholarship, but we also encourage collaboration and innovation in order to contribute to the ongoing development of new knowledge.
Selected Works
Selected Works is a feature of the DigitalCommons@Macalester and allows us to provide web pages that feature individual faculty members with information on their research and publications as well as teaching. Faculty members interested in updating, please see this guide or contact your library liaison.
Oral History Project
The Macalester College Oral History Project offers rich and varied perspectives on the history of Macalester and the people and events who have made the College what it is. Audio and videotaped interviews provide a permanent record of the stories and memories of Macalester community members, and serve as a rich supplement to College records maintained by the Archives.
Macalester Views
Macalester Views is a collection of digital images that reflect the observations of the Macalester community engaged in study or work around the globe; from Minneapolis, to El Paso, to Fiji, to Ghana. Selected images will be published on-line as a collection for use in teaching and learning worldwide.
