Freedman Fellows Program --Overview
The Samuel B. and Marian K. Freedman Digital Library, Language Learning, and Multimedia Services Center is a
partnership between the College of Arts and Sciences and the Kelvin Smith Library. For the College of Arts and
Sciences the Freedman Center is evidence of the College's commitment to the evolution of education and the
integration of multimedia technologies and digital tools in its curriculum. For KSL the Freedman Center is the
culmination of a ten-year vision for a center that provides faculty, students, and staff with the ability to utilize both
analog and hardcopy information sources in digital works and presentations.
Since it's inception in 2005, the Freedman Fellows Program has awarded $100,000, supported 29 faculty proposals,
and 300+ graduate and undergraduate students have used multimedia technologies as a part of their learning at
Case Western Reserve.
The Freedman Fellows Program is further evidence of the commitment of both the College of Arts and Sciences and
the Library to revolutionizing education at Case Western Reserve University. We are proud to announce a further
commitment on the part of the Samuel B. and Marian K. Freedman Family of $250,000 over five years to support this
important and innovative program. When the commitment is completed the interest on the donated sum will be used
to fund future Freedman Fellows Program awards, specifically: ensure the use of multimedia technology in the
curriculum of classes and in the work done by students at Case Western Reserve ensure the use of multimedia
technology in the research conducted at Case Western Reserve: specifically Digital Humanities research as
coordinated with the Baker-Nord Center and finally a commitment to Institutional Memory--that is, a commitment of
materials to Digital Case, the Digital Library for Case Western Reserve University.
