What's ahead for the Watkinson? The curators envi­ sion many possibilities, which may enhance the pos­ ture of the library. On the not-too-distant horizon are the positive benefits to be accrued when the Watkin­ son and Trinity library holdings are computerized. The effort is a collaborative one, being undertaken with Connecticut College and Wesleyan University, and is expected to require several years for installation and entering all the database into the computer. When it is completed, increased use of the Watkinson collection is expected, as more library patrons learn of its holdings in various subjects. Kaimowitz says that there has already been interest generated through an existing library network, recalling a visit by a user of some ornithological works. Once accomplished, the computerization will have "far reaching effects on all aspects of library work," Sax notes. "I can envisage the time when there will be less need for printed bibliographies because you will be able to get so much of the information right from the computer." Kaimowitz foresees more sharing of materials and some cooperative purchasing in the future. "It's not always easy to get people to give up certain areas," he says, "but I hope we will do as much as possible in terms of sharing our resources." Some is already done on a small scale. When there are duplicate materials in the Watki-nson, and the curators know of an institu­ tion that might be interested in them, they offer to give them, or make an exchange.

Americana is a specialty in the Watkinson's collection.

By Roberta Jenckes ''-'There on the Trinity campus would you expect to find an exquis­ WW itely illustrated medieval Book of Hours, a vintage World War I poster, and leaves from the Gutenberg Bible? Such treasures are gen­ erally associated with leading museums inst5ad of small liberal arts colleges, but at Trinity these are among the rare finds housed within the walls of the Watkinson Library. Among its holdings are the largest, small est, oldest and most valuable books in the Trinity collec­ tion. There is the magnificent elephant folio Audubon volume whose pages are larger than a standard-sized newspaper, and an English almanac, with slip cover, that is smaller than most postage stamps. There are volumes bound in ivory, silk, and silver, breathtaking illuminated manuscripts and uncounted other treasures in a total collection whose official holdings are placed at 165,000 volumes. "People are always finding things here that they just don't expect," says Jeffrey Kaimowitz, curator of the Watkinson, with unconcealed pleasure and pride. "For example, Ron Kiener, an assistant professor of religion, was surprised to find that we had a classic work of Arabic lexicography here. But, when the Watkinson was founded in 1857, the intention was to establish a comprehensive research library for the city of Hartford, and so we have a lot of old standards from the 19th century. The Watkinson's first librarian, James Hammond Trumbull, drew up a syllabus for collecting for the library and bought systematically. He was particularly interested in linguistics. So we have some remarkable early holdings, like the Arabic dictionary. "Just as the Trinity College library is a contemporary research library," he continues, "the Watkinson was founded with that in mind. That explains why it is rich in the period of its founding, the 19th c.entury. Unfortunately, because of financial problems, the col­ lection couldn't be kept current, so that now it has become one of older, rarer books." While many of those books are now seen as treasures, regarded with awe and some fascination, it's their usefulness as research tools to scholars, students and the general public that interests the Watkinson staff. "We don't treat things in an antiquarian way, saying, 'Look how valuable and old this book is,'" says Kaimowitz. "Rather, we try to emphasize its historic and intrinsic value. This is a research and rare "A lot of people tend to discount ephemera," Sax observes, "ephemera being sheet music, posters, Val­ entines, prints, and things of that sort - but, it's terri­ bly useful. That student's paper, using a scrapbook, is just one example. The rare books are not always the ones that are used the most. A beautifully printed book is a kind of object, rather than something to use in research. Whereas, something that may not appear terribly important can actually be a very useful addi­ tion from the researcher's point of view." The beautiful books, however, can also be utilitar­ ian, as when fine arts students use them to study book illustration. The religion department has employed some of the early material for studying Bible history, and the history of the alphabet. A course which Kai­ mowitz taught on Renaissance printing made use of the Watkinson collection. Many Trinity faculty use the collection and outside sc holars also put the re­ sources of the library to good use.

We're always striving to have the library better known; peo­ ple even come from abroad to use the library." In the main, though, the Watkinson's principal cus­ tomers - approximately 70 percent - are connected with Trinity, the vast majority of them students. The other 30 percent are scholars and students from other institutions and the general public. "The use of the library is largely determined by the way professors bring materials to the attention of stu­ dents," notes Margaret Sax, associate curator of the Watkinson. "We always welcome classes coming and using materials. Whenever there is a professor who is interested in the collection and says to his or her stu­ dents, 'Look, this is a marvelous source for primary material, come and use it,' then our usage goes up. If there are classes at Trinity that mesh with our collec­ tion, then that presents the best opportunity for it to be used. "For example, this past semester we've had a num­ ber of students from the Women's Studies Program. A student, who was researching how women were por­ trayed in advertising in the 19th century, based a whole paper on one enormous scrapbook that was full of advertisements. All this material, these colored ad­ vertisement cards and so on, was just perfect for her use, because it was so much better to see the material than to read about it.

She says that they come to the Watkinson because "this is a pleasant place for them to get to the materials they need for their research." Another recent user of the Enders Collection was a local high school student writing a paper on penguins. The student had approximately 20 books on the sub­ ject to consult for his research. Such visits are gratify­ ing, C larke notes, "because the fact that the LOOKING-GLASS, Watkinson is open to the public is one of the reasons that Mr. Enders gave his li brary here." .AND WH-AT .4LICE FOUND 'l'HBBll. The fact that the Enders gift was catalogued before 1' r·, ( /" ~.'/ h >' it came to Trinity, and came with money to support it was especially important. "It's expensive to process •. books, " Sax notes , "and you often don't get money for that. Which is not to say that we don't like getting gifts ... if we didn't get gifts, we wouldn't be add ing very much." In fact, if the Watkinson curators were pressed to come up with a "wish list" based on library needs, conservation work, particularly binding and paper . repairs, would be near the top of the list. More endowment funds to increase the library's acquisi­ tions and cataloguing are also of paramount im­ portance, but the book conservation and restoration demands are ongoing. The amount of binding needed in a library like the Watkinson is enormous, because so many old books require it, but the expense involved in h aving them bound by a professional restoration book binder is much greater than with a commercial binder. As a stopgap measure, books are kept in individual cardboard boxes made by students, and a small number are bound. Kaimowitz thinks that if funds were available, the li­ brary could actuall y use a full-time person to do bind­ ing and paper restoration and generally service the collection. Sax's wish list would include a re-cataloguing of a very large portion of the library, an estimated 75,000 books which are not listed in the main catalogue. "The fact that our collections are catalogued is terribly important for research, and we just don't have the staff to do all of this." Sax has still another wish. "I would like more people to use the library," she says. "It's still not quite as well known as it might be and people don't realize what we have here. The more we can get to the general public and the scholars that we have, the h appier I'd be. I like it, too, when students sort of peek around our door and look as if to say, 'now I wonder if I should reall y be in here,' and to make them feel welcome, that this is something that they can use. That's impor­ tant."• Campus Notes

The new, cushioned, wooden benches are similar in design to old benches in Seabury's science lab and can seat 76 people. The seating area is built on a slight angle to improve lines of sight and is enclosed by a wooden railing. Acoustical panels, carpeting, and cushions were added to correct the sound problems. Doorways were redesigned to meet fire codes. The new woodwork is all made of ash to match the old woodwork.

It is hard to imagine the coach of an 0-10 team talking positively, but Mike Darr does exactly that. "We've been more competitive. It's as good a team as we've had in years." As for the record, every break went against the Bantams. Ian Brodie tore knee carti­ lage and was lost for the year. Trinity led M.I.T. by a point, but had to forfeit the heavyweight class as Ar­ nie Amore was sick. A three-way meet with two lesser opponents was snowed out. With no seniors on the squad, there is hope for next year. More immediately, Coach Darr hopes to have some of his wrestlers place in the New Englands. At 177 lbs., Joe Adam has come in 4th both his years. Nick Vernonis at 142, Will Thomas at 190, and Amore all have the potential to place in the tourna­ ment.

SKI TEAM======

Competing against teams of more experience and depth, the men's ski team has struggled and is yet to taste victory in 1985. Coached by Steve Berlack, a former professional racer, the non-varsity team has traveled to New Hampshire and Massachusetts to compete each weekend against powerhouse schools such as Boston College, Brown and Plymouth State. Captain Max Smith has been a stand-out in slalom and giant slalom along with three Petes: Morris, Leav­ itt and Weiss. All will return next year with hopes of 31 building a bigger and better team.

FENCING======

Suffering from inexperience, the fencing team's hope is that the many freshmen and sophomores on the rosters will mean a brighter future. The men are currently 1-6 and the women are 2-4 although two of those losses were on tie-breaker points.
