Gilroy III, Chair Mohawk Valley Regional Economic Development Council 207 Genesee Street, #1604 Utica, NY 13501 Dear Council Representatives, As Mayor of the City of Utica, I recognize the vital importance of our Downtown district to the continued growth and future development of the entire City. The direction, strategies and projects identified in the enclosed New York State Downtown Revitalization Initiative application will guide our efforts to reinvigorate the heart of Utica. The City is poised for significant community transformation centered in economic development and growth. The $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative investment would allow government, private business, non-profit organizations and residents to capitalize on these emerging opportunities before us. Our community identified the character and authenticity of Downtown Utica as something to be developed and built upon. By filling vacant storefronts, providing urban living opportunities, enhancing public spaces, supporting business development and highlighting our diversity, we will make Utica a more vibrant, livable and sustainable community. With strong public-private partnerships, I am confident we can create transformative change and unprecedented opportunity, not just for the City of Utica, but for the entire Mohawk Valley Region. I am proud to submit our application for the Downtown Revitalization Initiative and look forward to making this vision for Downtown Utica a reality.

SPONS AGENCY Bureau of Libraries and Educational Technology (DHEW/OE), Washington, D. C. REPORT NO TM-5018-000-00 PUB DATE Oct 72 CONTRACT OEC -0 -72 -1243 NOTE 245p.;(140 References) AVAILABLE FROMSystem Development Corporation, 2500 Colorado Ave., Santa Monica, Calif. 90406 ($6.00) EDRS PRICE MF-$0.65 HC-$9.87 DESCRIPTORS *College Libraries; *Consortia; Directories; *Library Cooperation; Library Services; Shared Services; *University Libraries ABSTRACT In 1971, System Development Corporation (SDC) performed a study of academic library consortia, under contract to the 'U. S. Office of Education. The purpose of the study was to collect extensive information on existing academic library consortia and to develop a set of guidelines for planning, developing, operating, and evaluating a library consortium. One product of the study was the "Directory of Academic Library Consortia", which is LI 004173. The decision to produce a supplement came out of a desire to identify and describe a wider range of groups that are participating in the growing movement toward library cooperation. The supplement project was designed to include a greater variety as well as a larger number of cooperating library groups. To this end, the criteria for inclusion were significantly relaxed. Three basic criteria for inclusicn were used in the preparation of the supplement. Cooperatives that were included (1) were not included in the directory; (2) had at least one academic library member; and (3) were actively engaged in, or actively planning to engage in, cooperative library activities.

Some of the newest residents which can be found in our Children's Zoo include: Tennessee fainting goats, St. Croix sheep, a Vietnamese pot-bellied pig, a domestic horse and a South American llama. Along with these new residents you will find the two snowy owls we talked about in our last issue. Among these highlights, the Children's Zoo will also have a display of educational interactive graphics. These graphics will highlight certain animals and their special adaptations by allowing children (and adults) to manipulate the graphic to demonstrate the concept.
