Program Description

Event Details

This event is a great opportunity for younger high school students and history buffs to learn from experienced students and our keynote speaker, R. Isabela Morales (who holds a Ph.D. in history from Princeton University), about best practices for conducting scholarly research.

Our presenters will share their research projects to inform and inspire younger students who will be required to complete similarly ambitious research projects later in their secondary and post-secondary studies.

This Zoom event will be recorded and is brought to you by Crystal Feng of our Teen Advisory Board, the Teen Services Department, and the Friends of the Scarsdale Library.

For attendees who stay to the very end of this event, there will be three raffle drawings (one for each of these prizes):

1) Your choice of vinyl record (valued up to $75)

2) An Amazon gift card (valued at $100)

3) A pair of AirPods

When you register, please indicate which raffle(s) you wish to enter. You must be present on the Zoom at the time of the drawing(s) to win.

Registrants will receive emails containing Zoom credentials and raffle ticket number(s) prior to the event.
