The Newberry Library offers two undergraduate programs :
The Newberry Library's undergraduate programs offer students the rare opportunity to combine interdisciplinary inquiry, intensive research in primary sources, access to faculty from other institutions, and exposure to an overall culture of research scholarship.
Students are treated much as fellows are at the Newberry. They receive designated work spaces and individual paging shelves. Students receive the same extended access hours to the Library that fellows and staff enjoy, and are encouraged to consult and collaborate with Newberry scholars and staff.

ACM ProgramThe ACM program, sponsored by the Associated Colleges of the Midwest offers a semester long fall seminar and a series of one month seminars during the winter and spring terms. Seminars are offered on a wide variety of topics, and are designed to allow students to create their own research project appropriate to the Newberry Library collections. |
NLUS ProgramThe NLUS program, sponsored by DePaul University, Loyola University Chicago, Roosevelt University, and the University of Illinois, Chicago, offers Chicago area undergraduates a semester long humanities seminar each year from January to May. The seminar involves common reading assignments, research in the Library’s collections, a major research paper, and carries the credit of two courses. Seminars are team taught and topics vary from year to year. Each class is limited to twenty participants who are assigned individual study areas and are encouraged to work closely with Library staff. |
