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.
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 next phase of renovation at the Richardson
Library will be completed in the summer of 2017 and will include a makerspace, media creation/editing rooms, and technology in support of rapidly
growing programs in digital scholarship and data mining and visualization. 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."
