Rachel Cobb has won a grant worth $2700 towards her studies at Oxford's Bodleian Library this summer. Under the direction of Mark Bland and Andrew Honey, Rachel will immerse herself in learning about bibliography and the study of paper.
Rachel's funding comes from the Green and Gold Grant fund. In the short history of the Green and Gold Grant's existence, SLIS students have won this grant twice. Previously, a group of 10 students obtained funding, while Rachel is SLIS's first applicant to have obtained funding as an individual.
Congratulations Rachel!
