Liberal Arts Scholarly Repository
The LASR project is being developed to showcase significant student work's such as senior theses and collaborative projects that demonstrate the accomplishments of students at selective liberal arts colleges and universities and make it available for world-wide discovery and access.
St. Lawrence University has joined the Liberal Arts Scholarly Repository (LASR), a digital archive designed to feature the scholarship of students at Liberal Arts institutions.
Excerpt of draft from the mission statement: Scholarship is a conversation that depends on the work of others. Vital to this exchange of ideas is the accessibility of research, criticism, and other scholarly and creative work to the larger community of scholars. The Liberal Arts Scholarly Repository is an openly accessible archive that documents the scholarly and other creative activity of the students, faculty, and staff of the participating institutions. It provides individual scholars at those institutions (and beyond) the opportunity to share, explore, discover, and evolve the ideas, experience, enquiry fundamental to liberal education.
