Mesh Research is a lab exploring tools, platforms, and relationships for the future of digital scholarly communication. Mesh is a collaborative effort of the MSU College of Arts and Letters (CAL) and the MSU Libraries.

Mesh’s values include access, transparency, and community; as a result, we focus our work on developing open-source, academy-owned, collaboratively developed, transparently governed, and highly interoperable systems. We operate within the broader scope of the College of Arts and Letters values and MSU’s commitment to Inclusive Excellence and Impact.
