Library Annual Report and Revised Collection Development Policy

The semester is underway, and we are seeing lots of students at both library locations. At Greenspring, where my office is located, we have been continuing to "spruce up" in preparation for the Founders Day Archives Dedication. We finally got our newly wired (fast) eight-carrel workstation up and running, thanks to Pat Scott of OIT and the terrific Facilities Team (thanks, Walt, Tom, Mike, Jon, and Rick). Tomorrow will see the completion of Phase Two of the Archives Reading Room furnishing installation, with additional workstations areas, an Archivist work area, and display cabinets.

More information about what we've been up to in the past year can be viewed in our 2010 Library Annual Report, which I hope to make available as a link on this blog. Along with the Annual Report, now available is an updated Collection Development Policy ably prepared by Steve Rouzer. If you want to view either of these new documents, contact me at mbeck@stevenson.edu

Thanks for reading this and I do hope you'll make it a regular read.
