  • Twenty-FIVE 1869-1994 a Celebration of the Cleveland Public Library by James M. Wood
    1869-1994 A Celebration of the Cleveland Public Library by James M. Wood ONE HUNDRED AND TwENTY-FIVE 1869-1994 A Celebration of the Cleveland Public Library by James M. Wood CLEVELAND PUBLICLIBRARY I2- 1869-1994 y ~ This is the second published account of the Cleveland Public Library. The first, Open Shelves and Open Minds, was a centennial history written by the late C. H. "Red" Cramer, a professor of history at Case Western Reserve University. This book takes up where Professor Cramer's left off, and in that sense the two books are companion pieces. But this book was conceived as a stand-alone project. While the narrative covers roughly the last twenty-five years, the story of the first hundred years is told through historic photographs and their captions. The Cleveland Public Library gratefully acknowledges the people, inside and outside the Library, who participated in the making of this book. They are Fran Clark, Ann Olszewski, and Helen Azusenis of the Library staff, Rory O'Connor of Whelan Communications Inc. , Cleveland, Don Borger of Design Associates, Cleveland, and, of course, the author.

The stories collected here demonstrate Rutgers University Libraries’ commitment to supporting the mission of Rutgers University and to building a strong foundation for academic success and research. Thanks to the publication of a large, rigorous new study, “The Impact of Academic Library Resources on Undergraduates’ Degree Completion,” we know that academic libraries can have a big impact on student outcomes. This bodes well for the thousands of students who use the Libraries each day, but it also means we have to make sure our core services meet their needs and expectations and that we are ready to support them throughout their academic careers. This year, we made significant improvements to our collections, instruction, and discovery, adding thousands of new resources and making them easier to find.

  • History of Urban Main Library Service
    History of Urban Main Library Service JACOB S. EPSTEIN THEMOST IMPORTANT early date for urban public libraries would certainly be 1854, the year the Boston Public Library opened its doors. But as Jesse Shera has noted: “The opening, on March 20,1854, of the reading room of the Boston Public Library. ..was not a signal that a new agency had suddenly been born into American urban life. Behind the act were more than two centuries of experimentation, uncertainty, and change.”l Before the advent of public libraries there were numerous social li- braries, mercantile libraries and other efforts to have a community store of books which could be borrowed or consulted. A common prin- ciple evident in each of them was the belief that the printed word was important and should be made available to the ordinary citizen who could not own all the literature which was of value. Although it was a subscription library, rather than a public library as we think of it today, Benjamin Franklin’s Library Company of Phila- delphia, organized in 1731, was the first library in America to circulate books and the first to pay a librarian for his services. In his Autobiogra- phy, Franklin declared, “These libraries have improved the general conversation of the Americans, made the common tradesmen and farm- ers as intelligent as most gentlemen from other countries, and perhaps have contributed in some degree to the stand so generally made throughout the colonies in defense of their privileges.”2 Here is that recurrent theme of self-improvement that runs throughout the Ameri- can public library movement.

  • Google Books As a General Research Collection by Edgar Jones
    54(2) LRTS 77 Google Books as a General Research collection By Edgar Jones The current study attempts to measure the extent to which “full view” volumes contained in Google Books constitute a viable generic research collection for works in the public domain, using as a reference collection the catalog of a major nine- teenth-century research library and using as control collections—against which the reference catalog also would be searched—the online catalogs of two other major research libraries: one that was actively collecting during the same period and one that began actively collecting at a later date. A random sample of 398 entries was drawn from the Catalogue of the Library of the Boston Athenæum, 1807–1871, and searched against Google Books and the online catalogs of the two control collections to determine whether Google Books constituted such a viable general research collection. “There’s an east wind coming, Watson.” “I think not, Holmes. It is very warm.” “Good old Watson! You are the one fixed point in a changing age. There’s an east wind coming all the same, such a wind as never blew on England yet. It will be cold and bitter, Watson, and a good many of us may wither before its blast. But it’s God’s own wind none the less, and a cleaner, bet- ter, stronger land will lie in the sunshine when the storm has cleared.” —Arthur Conan Doyle, His Last Bow n December 14, 2004, Google announced that it had concluded agree- ments with five major research libraries to begin what is now known as the O 1 Google Books Library Project.
