BGSU Libraries and the Popular Culture Association (PCA) invite applications for the 2026 Summer Research Institute (June 22-26) at Jerome Library on the BGSU campus.
Spend a week working with the Browne Popular Culture Library and the Music Library and Bill Schurk Sound Archives, two nationally recognized collections that support distinctive research in popular culture and music. Both repositories will be available for in-depth research during the Institute, offering access to comic books, sound recordings, fanzines, publicity materials, scripts and screenplays, archival manuscripts, magazines and other primary sources supporting a wide range of interdisciplinary research.
Faculty, independent scholars, and advanced graduate students are encouraged to apply. If your research involves popular culture, this institute is for you!
