The William H. Hannon Library at Loyola Marymount University is issuing a call for applications for the Institute for Research Design in Librarianship (IRDL Online) 2024. IRDL is a continuing education program for academic and research
librarians and archivists designed to create a growing community of confident librarian-researchers. The year-long program begins with a Summer Research Workshop, to provide novice researchers with social science research training, followed by a year of peer
and formal mentor support in completing a research project of their design.
The Summer Research Workshop, traditionally delivered as an in-person experience, has shifted to an online format, from 2022-2024, thanks to a grant from the Institute of Museum and Library Services. The program will again be offered at
no cost to participants, open to librarians and archivists in the United States and Canada in full-time positions; librarians in a full-time residency are eligible to apply.
The 2024 Summer Research Workshop will be offered from May 27-June 7.
We seek librarians and archivists with a passion for research and a desire to improve their research skills. The cohort will be chosen from a selective submission process, with an emphasis on enthusiasm for research and diversity from a
variety of perspectives, including ethnicity and type and size of library.
Selection criteria:
We will be accepting applications from December 1, 2023 to January 26, 2024. Scholars accepted to the Institute will be notified in early March 2024. Application information may be found at
