These latter two teams are coming together soon as the department of Digital Scholarship and Distinctive Collections.

About Research & Education Services

We further JMU’s teaching, learning, and scholarship mission through our work as educators, researchers, and collections managers. Research & Education Services is the home of the Liaison Librarians.
