Who is eCUIP?

"eCUIP" is shorthand for the Digital Library Project of the Chicago Public Schools / University of Chicago Internet Project, or CUIP. "eCUIP" is short for electronic CUIP, pronounced "equip."

As the name suggests, CUIP is a collaborative partnership among the University of Chicago, Chicago Public Schools (CPS) Department of Learning Technologies, and 28 CPS schools in the Woodlawn, Hyde Park / South Kenwood, and North Kenwood / Oakland neighborhoods of Chicago. The purpose of the partnership is the successful integration of Internet resources into the curriculum.

The Digital Library Project core staff is affiliated with the University of Chicago's Regenstein Library, Digital Library Development Center, and works closely with the principals, teachers and librarians in nine pilot schools.

Funding for the Digital Library project has been generously provided by Searle, a Monsanto Company, the State of Illinois Library Services and Technology Act, and the CPS Department of Libraries and Information Services. Additional support has been provided by Dominican University and the University of Chicago Neighborhood Schools Program.
