The Libraries encourage contributions of emerging and published research from all AUB community: AUB academic staff (research-oriented publications); AUB non-academic staff (research-oriented publications); AUB adjunct positions (faculty and staff); and AUB students (mainly, but not limited to, theses and dissertations).
