Dear Friends, 1 A Letter to the Fnends

It is with great pleasure that I applaud your efforts in making our Friends group a healthy, vital, and forward- looking organization. Ovet the past number of years your An Insh Landscape interest and involvement have enabled our association to Part 1: A Prehistoric Past grow and prosper during a turbulent time for all. Your Jet Mane Prerukville most generous level of commitment has allowed unprece- dented participation on behalf of the Friends at literally every level of Fondren's renovation. In conjunction, the 1988-89 Calendar of Events Friends' Endowment Fund continues to grow. Our mem- bership is up and you may look forward to a fine variety of ptograms this year, including a special event in March that The Woodson Research Center: promises to be outstanding. Fondren's Hidden Treasure

I encourage each of you to take full advantage of the Miriam Ma tours that have been arranged to view the newly renovated library. You and your guests may tour the facility with a 13 representative of the library staff on Friday, November 1 1, Fondren's French Connection from 12:00 to 2:00 p.m. Of from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. On Cory Masiak

Saturday, Novembet 1 2, there will be one tour from 10:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m.

For some time I have been convinced that support The People Behind the Machines groups like ours will become more and more important to Minam Ma institutions as tesoutces tighten. An organized effort to encourage even greater individual participation from 17 within out own ranks has been and will continue to be an The Fnends of Fondren Library incteasingly significant goal. It is my impression that the

Friends of Fondren have accepted this challenge and 25 exemplify the concept to a degree of which we can all Gifts to Fondren Library be proud.

Since the earliest passage graves — dating back to almost 4000 B.C. — are found on the west coast of Brittany, Pro- fessor Michael J. O'Kelly of University College, Cork, believes it is likely that the cultural or religious impetus behind the passage grave spread from Brittany into France,

Spain, Portugal and north to the British Isles and Scan- dinavia. As they harvested the resources along the Irish coast, seminomadic fishermen, hunters, and food gath- erers probably diffused the idea ot these tombs.

cataloging," such as that provided for books by the Library

of Congress and bibliographic utilities, has been impos-

sible for manuscript and archival holdings. In addition, there has not existed until quite recently

any nationally accepted standard for cataloging manuscript collections. Now, however, the Library of Congress has developed a MARC (Machine Readable Cataloging) For- mat for Archives and Manuscripts Control, analogous to and compatible with the MARC format for books. This allows repositories to enter descriptions of their collec-

tions into bibliographic utilities, a local computer database, or an online circulation system, thus making them acces-

sible to local library patrons or scholars nationwide. The

Woodson staff hopes to begin utilizing this format in the not-too-distant future. The Woodson Research Center contains a tremen-

dous fund of information, and its atmosphere of eager

helpfulness is directly attributable to an enthusiastic and

dedicated staff. Every center employee emphasizes the

importance of teader service in his or her job: the serious

researcher always comes first. Staff members' only regret is that the center remains relatively unknown on campus
