How to Browse Student Work on ScholarWorks

ScholarWorks@UMassAmherst Libraries allows you to browse collections of honors and graduate student publications. Follow the search guidelines below.

  1. Go to the Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning Community Collections page. This is the main landing page for all publications within the UMass Amherst Department of Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning that have been submitted to ScholarWorks.
  2. You can search for publications "By Issue Date," "By Author," "By Title," "By Subject," "By Degree," and "By Advisor." These filters are found on the top of the main landing page under "Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning."
  3. You can also scroll down to the "Collections in this Community" section to search for publications by collection. Collections include honors projects, master's projects, master's theses, PhD dissertations, and more.
  4. When you are in a collection page, you still search "By Issue Date," "By Author," "By Title," "By Subject," "By Degree," and "By Advisor." ​​​​​​

*IMPORTANT: To search "By Author," you must type "last name, first name" into the search bar. To search "By Advisor," you can type "last name, first name" or "first name AND last name" (It is best to try both options in case one does not yield any results.

 

Example

Say you want to search for a master's project by a specific student in the department. First, select the "Landscape Architecture & Regional Planning Masters Projects" collection in the the main landing page. This link will take you to a page that shows ScholarWorks' collection of landscape architecture and regional planning masters projects. To search for a specific student's master's project, select the "By Author" filter. Type the student's "last name, first name" into the search bar. Then select "Browse" to see the results.
