Celebrating 50 years of our archivists' work preserving precious Rutgers memories. A true labor of love, indeed. #RUArchives50th

More fun with #RUArchives50th ... It has been 50 years since the University Archives were established in 1975. We are proud to have the University Archives as part of Rutgers University Libraries!

Did you know that more than half of college students have taken fewer courses or avoided taking a particular course to reduce textbook costs? The steep and rising cost of course materials represents a serious financial burden for students - at Rutgers and nationwide. Rutgers University Libraries are now accepting applications for our Open and Affordable Textbooks (OAT) Program. Through this program, we award research funds to Rutgers University faculty who redesign their courses to use free or low-cost materials or who create a new open textbook.

This week, University Academic Affairs (UAA) hosted the Data Specialist Collective—a group of data analysts and experts from across UAA’s 15 university-wide reporting units. Aligned with Love Data Week, this gathering fostered collaboration, problem-solving, and the exchange of best practices. Data specialists play a vital role within our teams, transforming data into meaningful insights that drive informed decision-making at Rutgers. Their expertise helps shape our institution, and we’re grateful for the work they do! #Rutgers #LoveDataWeek #DataSpecialists
