Over the last couple of days, we've been fielding questions about Hoopes Prizes in general and the 2009 winners in particular.
I've put up a post on LNL, our public blog, about the 2009 Hoopes Prize theses. Our copies are essentially in transit -- i.e., at the bindery -- and won't be here for a couple of weeks. But Archives copies are available for users to see.
So if students ask, direct them to the LNL post or give them the information there. Also, remember that we have a printed handout, "Searching for Hoopes Prizes, Theses and Dissertations in HOLLIS" in rack near the dictionaries. And an online copy can be printed out or downloaded from our Scribd collection as well.
And by the way: I've just now discovered that to browse these Archives items -- like HU92.2009.151 -- you need to select "Widener number" in HOLLIS classic. "Other call number," which I started with, comes up blank.
