Greetings Historians-


The UW Libraries Undergraduate Researcher Tutorial<https://www.lib.washington.edu/types/researcher-tutorial> was substantially updated for the 2023-24 academic year by the Undergraduate Student Success team, the Office of Undergraduate Research, and Libraries student employees. The updated tutorial content concentrates on honoring student strengths and expertise and actively applies an anti-racist lens to citation, information evaluation, and publishing and scholarship practices. Tutorial modules updated include: Strategic reading<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/introduction-to-strategic-reading?module_item_id=11278249>; Evaluating information<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/introduction-to-evaluating-information?module_item_id=11280256>; Database & search skills<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/introduction-to-database-and-search-skills?module_item_id=11279759>; Citation practices<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/introduction-to-citation-management?module_item_id=11228752>; Publishing & sharing research<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/introduction-to-publishing-and-sharing-research?module_item_id=11312674> and Finding your balance<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/introduction-to-finding-your-balance?module_item_id=11280263>, including a new section on “imposter phenomenon<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650/pages/imposter-phenomenon?module_item_id=19153679>.”

The Tutorial is open to all students<https://canvas.uw.edu/courses/1388650> via Canvas and all instructors, advisors and staff educators can import one module or the whole tutorial in a Canvas course via Canvas Commons. The Tutorial is maintained quarterly in UW Canvas by the USS team and consistently receives ~35,000 views per academic year.
