jlan JJfranristo Jfogljont Volume 73, Number 13 Univfrsity of S«n Francisco October 27, 1978 Sutro Library To Lose Lease by Nancy Wingfield The Sutro Library, presently hous ed in the bottom floor of the Glee son Library, is not scheduled to have its lease renewed upon expiration in December, 1979. According to University of San Francisco President, Father Lohn LoSchiavo, the administration based its decision against renewal of the lease because the Sutro Library occu pies 14,000 square feet of space badly needed by the Gleeson Library for expansion. The Administration also questions how much this facility will be used by the university com munity. For those students unfamiliar with the Sutro Library, a branch of the Cali fornia State Library, it is built around the 100,000 volume collection of rare books Adolf Sutro left the state upon his death. Included in this vast collection are 13th and 14th Century Yemenite He Sutro Library must soon be re-located. brew manuscripts, 15th Century incunabila, including a 1478 copy of The Sutro Library contains one of Various members of the Board of the St. Thomas Aquinas Summa Also among the varied collections the largest manuscript collections in Trustees have asked the administra Theologica; 16th Century Calvanist are Sir Joseph Bank's personal the world. tion to reconsider its initial decision. tracts and Lutheran pamphlets, and archives.
