Contributions from LLC members to academia News about publications and conference presentations One of the important activities of academic life is to actively participate in spaces where research is shared, discussed, and disseminated. These practices are represented in publications, conference presentations or community activism activities, among others. Members of our LLC community—faculty, students, and alumni— continuously enrich the academic landscape by participating in those spaces.

We want to share with our LLC friends some of the activities that our faculty and students have engaged in during the previous months.

Tamara Peters, from UMBC’s Imaging Research Center, led a team of researchers to study historical documents and create the 3D map.

Peters discussed the use of technology in the cutting-edge representation. “We are so used to today living through our smart phones and our iPads,” she said. “I think this is just a natural way for people of this generation to learn and to be exposed to things.” 

“Bearings of Baltimore Circe 1815″ is on display at the Maryland Historical Society.
