**About DePaul University**
Founded in 1898 by the Congregation of the Mission (also known as the
Vincentians), DePaul University is the largest Catholic university in the
United States and currently enrolls almost 24,000 students in 10 schools and
colleges offering 300 undergraduate and graduate programs and concentrations.
One of the largest private, not-for-profit universities in the nation,
DePaul's faculty teach across multiple campuses in Chicago and its suburbs.
DePaul University has been recognized in national publications for its
diversity, service-learning programs, and sustainability efforts, and is the
home to nationally recognized academic programs in the College of Business,
the College of Computing and Digital Media, and The Theatre School. U.S. News

**About the DePaul University Library**
The DePaul University Library is comprised of the John T. Richardson Library,
the Loop Library, and library service programs delivered to DePaul's suburban
campuses. The DePaul University Library is a partner in a number of campus
programs, including the first-year experience (Chicago Quarter), the Teaching
Commons, and the Graduate Certificate in the Digital Humanities. In 2013, a
major renovation of the Richardson Library facilitated the launch of the
Richardson Library Information Commons, a technology-enhanced space including
individual, group, and collaborative work spaces, Learning Commons and
Scholar's Lab. The DePaul University Library is housed in the Division of
Teaching and Learning Resources, which includes the DePaul Art Museum and
Faculty Instructional Technology Services, and is an active member of local,
regional, and national consortia, including CARLI, Chicago Collections, the
Center for Research Libraries, the Library Publishing Coalition, the Coalition
for Networked Information, and the Catholic Research Resources Alliance. In
2015, DePaul joined the Federal Depository Library Program as one of its first
"digital depository" members and contributed to the design and launch of
Explore Chicago Collections (http://explore.chicagocollections.org/), which
has been described as "a game-changing collaboration between libraries,
universities, & museums."
