What is the Research Commons?
The UW Libraries Research Commons is intended to meet
a new set of student and faculty needs that are emerging
with the growth of data-driven research, digital scholarship
and interdisciplinary studies. The space provides a
collaborative environment in which students and faculty
can come together to share and discuss research, as well
as get support for all steps of the research process:
searching, writing, publishing, funding. The Research
Commons is a place to collaborate and connect with fellow
students and faculty on research projects. It is a place for
workshop and presentation opportunities, and a place to
discover what your peers and colleagues are researching.
The ground floor of the Allen South Library was
transformed over the summer of 2010, utilizing Capital
Projects funding from the Office of the Provost. Data and
wireless upgrades were generously provided by UWIT. The
Research Commons Advisory Board provides
recommendations on services to be offered within the
space, including consulting, workshops, salons and
presentation space.
The University of Washington Libraries is enthusiastic about
the possibilities that this project opens for UW students and
faculty doing research, and believe that the Research
Commons will go far in furthering our mission to enrich
the quality of life and advance intellectual discovery by
connecting people with knowledge.

Commons on our blog:
