UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA

National rankings: In the latest Association of Research Libraries rankings, which are for 2009–10, the libraries of the University of Arizona (the University Libraries, Arizona Health Sciences Library, and Law Library) ranked 16 th and 20 th among 68 public U.S. research institutions on the two primary national indices.

In addition, through our focus on the University’s teaching and research missions/goals, the University Libraries helped advance all four of the campus Strategic Directions as well as the Libraries’ three Critical Few goals in 2010–11. Major accomplishments for the Libraries during this academic year were a library-wide reorganization, the implementation of on-demand information delivery, and evaluation of our research-skills credit course. These initiatives, along with our many other activities, position the Libraries well for the future.

Expanding Access and Enhancing Educational Excellence This strategic direction is a priority for the University Libraries. Our major focus is moving to provide online resources that are available 24/7 and easily discoverable. Specifically, two of our Critical Few goals are to ensure that the Libraries’ digital services support our users’ digital lifestyles and to integrate information literacy into the University curriculum using the most effective and scalable means available. Here is what we did to advance those goals in 2010–11:

New Initiatives • We established a “University Libraries” tab that appears on every University of Arizona course site in D2L and provides students with easy access to library resources and services that support their learning. From this tab, students can access course-specific library materials for their classes, get questions answered via our Ask a Librarian service, or use one of the Libraries’ 97 tutorials (on subjects ranging from search strategies to copyright law). • In 2011 the Libraries were integrated into the UA’s official mobile app, Arizona Mobile, enabling students and faculty to more efficiently conduct their research on the go. With the Arizona Mobile app, users of Android devices can search the library catalog, request assistance with research or homework, view library locations and hours, and find staff contact information. • In the realm of instruction, the Libraries continue to develop new courses and materials to support campus instructional efforts. We have developed a new one-credit online course for graduate students in Information Research Strategies. It’s being offered for the first time in Fall 2011. In 2010–11 we also completed a pilot project with the History Department to deliver information literacy instruction to history majors. Twenty new tutorials, along with a video guide on using Special Collections materials, were created for History 301 and are now being used for other courses as well. We also developed tutorials for Nutritional Sciences; the online course guide for its Therapeutic Nutrition class introduces students to the information resources and library services they will need for class research projects. • In 2011, the Libraries launched On-Demand Information Delivery (ODID), a new method of acquiring that provides access to more information resources while maximizing the Libraries’ purchasing dollars. As of Fall 2011, more than 40,000 new records for scholarly books (print and electronic) have been loaded into the library catalog. We don’t “own” these materials, but UA users get access to all of them. In the past, the Libraries would have been able to afford to offer only a portion of these books, with no guarantee that they would be used. Now usage triggers a purchase of the item and it is added to the Libraries’ collection. • We are collaborating with other research libraries to preserve and increase access to information resources. In 2010–11 we joined the Western Regional Storage Trust as a founding member (about 100 libraries are participating in this effort to develop shared print ). We soon will join HathiTrust, which includes the digitized collections of more than 50 major research institutions and libraries.

Ongoing Initiatives • We have shifted many of our instruction efforts online in order to reach more students more effectively. We continue to refine our Online Research Lab (ORL) course and assess its effectiveness. A longitudinal study done in Spring 2011 found that students who took the Libraries’ ORL showed significantly greater improvement in their ability to find and use information than peers who received other forms of instruction. In addition, students who took the ORL showed greater improvement in their grades from English 101 to English 102. Since students who do well in English 102 also tend to do better in college, we believe the ORL positively affects student success at the University. (See Appendix III for the study report.) • We now have more than 1,100 online instructional resources available to students and instructors through D2L and on the Libraries’ website. We have seen large increases in the use of these resources. In a Google search for plagiarism tutorials, the University Libraries’ tutorial tops the list of 1.5 million results returned. In FY2011, our online learning objects, course guides, subject guides, and “How Do I?” guides were used nearly 614,000 times. For details on these and other statistics, see Appendices IV and V. • We expanded our video streaming service, which makes it easier for faculty to incorporate video clips into classroom instruction or for students to view the content outside of the classroom. We made video available to 640 courses in FY2011. • In response to usability testing and customer feedback that the Libraries’ website needed to be easier to navigate, we made significant improvements to it in 2010–11. We hope to see better scores and more positive feedback in our various other assessment measures in the coming year. • We continue to improve physical spaces and equipment in the Libraries’ buildings to create a better learning environment. We added two free scanners, expanded study space on the Main Library’s 2nd Floor, added outdoor study space with four more umbrella tables on the Science-Engineering Library’s patio, and improved Science-Engineering’s 2 nd Floor with the addition of carpet and comfortable new furniture as well as increased power and data connections. We have received many favorable comments from customers about these changes. We also purchased a reservation system for group study rooms in the Main Library. If a pilot test of the system is successful, we can expand it all of the Libraries’ group study rooms, which are always in high demand. • We continue to provide support for underserved segments of the campus. A number of library employees participate as mentors in the Arizona Assurance Scholars Program. We had five underrepresented students working with fellow students through our Peer Information Counselors program in 2010–11. We also collaborate with the School of Information Resources and Library Science in the Knowledge River Program to recruit and train graduate students who will work in libraries that serve Hispanic and Native American communities. The Libraries employed eight Knowledge River graduate assistants in 2010–11, providing financial support and valuable library work experience.

Challenges: The Libraries are experiencing heavy community use in a time of declining resources. The presence of non-UA users in the Libraries is the No. 1 topic in complaints that we receive. As the Libraries’ budget has been cut and demands for services have increased, we have found it necessary to reduce our availability to non-UA users in order to maintain focus on our primary customers: UA students, faculty, and staff. As of August 2011, we are eliminating non-campus use of the Libraries after 9 p.m.

Metrics: • Our goal is to increase the percentage of the Libraries’ holdings that can be discovered through Google or other search engines, thus making these materials more accessible for research and learning. In FY2011, 96% of our holdings were open to web browsers. • Since online resources can be accessed anytime/anywhere, another key metric is the

2

ratio of electronic resources to print resources that we acquire, thereby expanding 24/7 access to information. In FY2011, 63% of our total purchases were electronic. E-books accounted for 71% of our monograph purchases.

Increasing Achievements in Research, Scholarship, and Creative Expression For 2010–11, another one of the Libraries’ Critical Few areas was improving support for the University’s research mission. Our collections are a vital part of learning and research. In 2010–11 our book collection grew to nearly 5.8 million volumes and we subscribed to nearly 70,000 journals. Through our Interlibrary Loan, Document Delivery, and Express Retrieval services, we put another 95,000 items into the hands of our campus customers. New acquisitions by the Center for Creative Photography (CCP) and Special Collections enhanced their rich collections. Materials donated by the daughter of CCP co-founder Ansel Adams expanded his . Special Collections received significant gifts related to the history of Tucson and the Southwest Borderlands, Vaudeville and entertainment, politics, and women mystery writers. Details about these acquisitions can be found in Appendix VI. The Libraries’ digital repositories continue to expand. In FY2011, CCP made 21 photographers’ bodies of work available online, comprising 16,800 images. Special Collections made more than 10,000 digital images from the Jack Sheaffer photograph collection publicly available online. These Sheaffer photos document the growth of Tucson from 1955 to 1975. At the end of FY2011, there were a total of 195,238 locally owned items in the University Libraries’ digital collections. Our Campus Repository Service provides opportunities for campus units to work with the Libraries to store, preserve, and provide access to the University’s research, creative works, publications, and teaching materials. The Libraries are working closely with the College of Agriculture & Life Sciences (CALS) to build collections of current and historic agricultural publications, and with the Laboratory of Tree-Ring Research to build a collection of its past publications. The Libraries continue to build other campus partnerships to increase access to scholarship. We worked with UA Psychology Professor Melinda F. Davis to release her new open-access, online scholarly journal in Fall 2010. The Journal of Methods and Measurement in the Social Sciences is available through the Libraries’ UAiR online repository ( https://journals.uair.arizona.edu/index.php/ jmmss ). We now provide access to 11 e-journals that are produced or hosted at the University of Arizona. Within the Libraries, we support the scholarship of our library faculty by offering up to 24 days of professional leave per year, annual travel funding for service and scholarship, and grants for research. (See Appendix VII for a list of faculty and staff accomplishments in 2010–11.)

Challenges: • As always, inflation in the cost of information resources is a major problem. In order for the Libraries to provide new materials —or maintain current resources, at the very least — our budget needs to be able to keep pace with inflation. Inflation in the cost of information resources is projected at 7% a year for the next two years. This would add about $817,000 in expenses for FY2012 and an additional $875,000 in FY2013. • It is critical for the Libraries and the campus to find successful ways to address data management. In 2010–11, the Libraries worked with the UA’s Office of the Vice President for Research to form a campuswide faculty committee on data management and cyberinfrastructure. We hope to have recommendations to implement that will help campus researchers meet funding agency demands for research data management.

Metrics: • Usage of our electronic resources rose in FY2011. Hits on our commercial electronic resources (e.g., online journals and e-books) increased to 10.7 million. Digital items in our

3

campus repository collections (e.g., Special Collections’ and CCP’s unique online collections as well as items from other campus units) were accessed 1.7 million times. • A key metric for our contribution to research is the portion of the Indirect Cost Recovery formula that results from sponsored use of the Libraries. Study results are due in 2013 and will help us better understand the Libraries’ contributions to sponsored research.

Expanding Community Engagement and Workforce Impact The Libraries’ online commercial collections are accessible to the public within our buildings and our digital repository collections are available worldwide on the web. Garmin International contacted the Libraries for permission to use geospatial data from our Arizona Geospatial Data and Maps collection for its GPS systems. The data they were interested in were created as part of librarian Chris Kollen’s sabbatical project in 2007. In the community, the Libraries’ Special Collections provided archival materials for the Arizona Daily Star ’s special sections on the state’s centennial. The Libraries also have a presence in the new UA Downtown location. Our outreach efforts included a variety of exhibits and programs in the Main Library, Special Collections, Center for Creative Photography, and Phoenix Art in 2010–11. • Exhibits in the Main Library highlighted Women’s History Month (honoring influential women in UA’s history) and Banned Books Week. • Special Collections featured an exhibit on the legacy of congressman and UA alumnus Stewart Lee Udall. Another exhibit focused on the history of the Mexican Revolution through photographs, historical documents, and music. Special Collections’ 15 public programs in 2010–11 included a lecture by Senator Tom Udall, a screening of a student- produced documentary on the Borderlands, and lectures by UA professors about the Mexican Revolution. • CCP exhibitions included “Face to Face: 150 Years of Photographic Portraiture” and “Ansel Adams: Arizona and the West.” CCP had 14 public programs in 2010–11. • The Phoenix Art Museum hosted exhibits on “Creative Continuum: The History of the Center for Creative Photography,” “Brett Weston and Sonya Noskowiak: Inspired Vision,” and “Pure Photography, Post Production and Mixed Media.”

The Libraries’ marketing group has increased the visibility of the Libraries and CCP both locally and nationally. A new library e-newsletter goes out to 2,000+ people monthly, letting them know about our upcoming exhibits and programs. CCP also sends out its own monthly e-newsletter to 3,100 people for the same purpose. More than 800 items from CCP’s collections were on display around the world in traveling exhibitions staged in Italy, Germany, Austria, Norway, Spain, the Netherlands, New York, California, North Carolina, Maine, and Illinois. CCP also lent dozens of works from its collections to exhibitions in such as the Museo Tamayo in Mexico City and the Georgia O’Keeffe Museum in Santa Fe, N.M. As described in the previous section, we are working with other campus units (such as CALS and the Tree-Ring Lab) to build digital collections that make products of their research available to the general public.

Challenges: Reductions in staffing have limited our progress in digitizing materials and making them available online for the public. Reductions in staffing also have caused us to reduce the number of exhibits staged during the year and to discontinue some activities, such as LessonLink training for local K-12 teachers and the community’s popular Junior Scientists Kids’ Day. Limited staffing also was a factor in our decision to restrict use of the Libraries after 9 p.m. to UA affiliates only.

Metrics: 209,255 visitors attended exhibits at the Center for Creative Photography, Special Collections, and the Phoenix Art Museum gallery in FY2011.

Improving Productivity and Increasing Efficiency Underlying all of the Libraries’ 2010–11 efforts was a focus on operational effectiveness and identifying ways to provide excellent services and resources with less state revenue. The Libraries underwent an extensive restructuring in 2011 to better position us to be as effective as we can be with the human resources we have and to generate new resources. We added a third development position and formally increased the time that Research Services librarians and Special Collections librarians devote to development. We launched patron-driven acquisition in order to maximize the Libraries’ purchasing dollars and make sure that items we buy get used (studies show that user-selected materials are used more often). CCP’s new Laura Volkerding Study Center consolidated two services (access to archives and access to CCP’s fine print collection) and saves money, improves customer service, and creates a better research environment. The entire staff of the UA Press completed its move to the Main Library in May 2011. By eliminating off-campus office and warehouse space, $147,000 a year was saved by the University and $70,000 was saved by the Press. The UA Press also outsourced its distribution functions, saving money and hopefully improving sales. Other campus collaborations that resulted in increased access in 2010–11 included sharing the cost of the popular Safari technical books with UITS and collaborating with the Arizona Health Sciences Library on joint funding of journal purchases. On a regional and national scale, the Libraries’ resource-sharing ventures include multiple consortial memberships that help us to leverage purchases. Consortial purchases enabled us to save $1 million and avoid $7.1 million in costs in FY2011.

Challenges: We need additional sources of non-state funding to stabilize our budget. A lot of time and effort was put into working with ASUA and GPSC leadership on the Libraries’ budget situation and trying to negotiate a formula for student fee increases every two years. GPSC leadership had agreed to support a library fee hike starting in 2011–12, but the Libraries deferred to the UA Administration’s request to wait until 2011–12 to seek an increase. If the Regents do not approve any fee increases in the coming year, it will be extremely difficult for us.

Metrics: • The Libraries’ budget expenditures from non-state funds totaled nearly $6.7 million in FY2011 (29% of our total expenditures). Our goal is to raise the non-state portion of our expenditures by 3% annually. In FY2011, the non-state portion of our expenditures rose 9.6%. • The Libraries and CCP brought in gifts and donations worth more than $8 million in FY2011. The total value of our endowments increased to $9.4 million.

Mission Critical Issue The Libraries’ mission critical issue is continuing to build a digital library while also providing the physical spaces needed for a rich research and learning environment. The unique resources of the Center for Creative Photography and Special Collections are one of our greatest assets. Both buildings are out of space, and the need for building the North Campus Library is becoming more urgent. Continuing to move our services and collections online is a challenge that encompasses online instruction, data management, , and much more. We are seeking partnerships and expanding fundraising to address this critical issue. We also have restructured and streamlined operations to focus on expanding our digital library.

Appendix I: Salary Equity Analysis for FY2011

In FY2011, the salaries for library faculty at all levels at the University Libraries continued to lag behind the peer average. Full Librarians were impacted the most, with salaries 5.3% below the peer average. To alleviate some of the salary disparity, all library faculty salaries were brought up to 95% of market/peer average at the start of FY2012.

FY2011 Salary Comparison to Peers 1 UA Average Peer Average 2 Difference Assistant Librarian $52,030 $53,364 (2.6%) Associate Librarian $61,585 $63,996 (3.9%) Full Librarian $84,315 $88,753 (5.3%)

1 Note: These averages do not include administrators or team leaders. 2 Source: Association of Research Libraries Annual Salary Survey 2010 –11

When library faculty salaries at the University Libraries are broken down in terms of gender, all Full Librarians are paid exactly the same. Female Assistant Librarians earn more (on average) than males. This is partially due to the fact that our most recent hires and promotions have been women. Recent retirements of female Associate Librarians have decreased the average salaries for female faculty at that rank.

When salaries are broken down in terms of ethnicity, all Assistant Librarians are paid exactly the same.

National Rankings In the latest Association of Research Libraries rankings 4, the libraries of the University of Arizona—which include the University Libraries, Arizona Health Sciences Library, and Law Library—ranked near the bottom of our 16-member peer group for total staff salaries, dropping to 15th for FY2010. Only the University of California-Davis ranked lower. Broadening the salary comparison to all 115 academic research libraries in ARL and all 68 U.S. publics in ARL, we lost significant ground in those rankings as well.

Appendix II: Report on Faculty Recruitments and Diversity for FY2011

The University Libraries have a strong commitment to diversity. At the end of FY2011, 26% of our academic professionals (faculty and year-to-year) belonged to underrepresented groups and 61% were female. The percentage of underrepresented minorities was considerably higher than at other U.S. university libraries in the Association of Research Libraries, which averaged 14.2%.

Diversity Initiatives • The Libraries’ Millennium Report Oversight Committee (MROC) continues to provide diversity training to employees. Training in 2010–11 included two SafeZONE workshops and a session on cultural competence taught by Dr. Patricia Montier-Overall. Next year, the Libraries will do an Organization Climate and Diversity Assessment survey. • We hosted three minority librarians for six-week fellowships in the Association of Research Libraries (ARL) Career Enhancement Program. We also hosted a South African librarian for an eight-week fellowship. In 2011 the Dean hosted another mentee from ARL’s Leadership and Career Development Program (LCDP) for minority librarians. • The Libraries partnered with the School of Information Resources and Library Science on a successful grant application for nearly $900,000 in additional Knowledge River (KR) funding. We continue to provide funding and work experience for KR graduate students who are training to serve Hispanic and Native American communities. • In 2010–11, the Dean encouraged three female library faculty members to apply for the UA Academic Leadership Institute. The Dean wrote letters of support for all three. Hispanic librarian Verónica Reyes-Escudero was selected to participate in the Institute.

Classified Staff Our classified staff is even more diverse than our academic professionals. At the end of FY2011, our classified staff was 70% female and 35.6% underrepresented minorities.

Appendix III: Preliminary Results of the Online Research Lab / Information Literacy Longitudinal Study

In early 2010, the UA Libraries designed and conducted a research study to assess the impact of the Online Research Lab course. 1 This course had been developed to support and be taken concurrently with English 102/108 and was designed to improve ENGL 102 students’ level of information literacy (IL) and research skills. The study collected data, in the form of standardized information literacy pre- and post-tests, from four different student cohorts, some taking the Online Research Lab, and others receiving IL instruction through other means.2 The results of this study, which have been published in peer-reviewed journals, 3 indicated that students who took the Libraries’ Online Research Lab showed significantly greater improvement between information literacy pre- and post-tests than their peers in the other cohort groups. [See Appendix A]

In Spring 2011, using the results from this study and other data on the participating students’ academic performance, the Libraries embarked on a longitudinal study to investigate 1) whether there was any correlation between students’ levels of information literacy and their academic success, and 2) what effect the Online Research Lab may have had on students’ subsequent academic success. 4

Longitudinal Study Findings:

We found that there were significant correlations, all of which serve to underscore the

1 This course was developed and delivered by the UA Libraries but was initially offered through the English department as ENGL 197r. Once the Libraries were granted the right to offer courses for credit, the course was moved over to the Libraries’ course designation, ULIB 197r. 2 The four cohort groups were 1) those taking ENGL 102 in conjunction with the Online Research Lab, 2) those taking ENGL 102 who were taught information literacy skills by their English instructor, 3) those taking ENGL 102 who were taught information literacy skills by a librarian during a 50-minute class session, 4) and a group of students taking ENGL 101 who received no information literacy instruction. 3 Thus far, two articles on this study have either been published or accepted for publication. The first article details the research methodology and the second covers the study’s results. (See Mery, Y., Newby, J., and Peng K. [2011]. “Assessing the reliability and validity of locally developed information literacy test items.” Reference Services Review 39[1]; Mery, Y., Newby, J., and Peng, K. “Why One-shot Information Literacy Sessions Are Not the Future of Instruction: A Case for Online Credit Courses College & Research Libraries” Accepted for publication in College & Research Libraries , August 1, 2011). The findings of a qualitative analysis of students’ annotated bibliographies (using three of the four cohort groups) are currently under consideration for publication (Mery, Y., Newby, J., and Peng, K. “Completing the Triangle: Using citation analysis to corroborate pre- and post-test assessments.” Submitted to Portal , August 2011). 4 The size of the original experimental groups varied greatly, with the largest being those students who took the Research Lab in conjunction with ENGL 102. In order to exclude other variables and work from relatively homogenous samples, 32 students were randomly selected from this cohort. This group and the other ENGL 102 cohort groups (those taught by the instructor and those taught by a librarian in a 50-minute session) were tested for homogeneity of variances to ensure that they were comparable with respect to their High School GPAs, their SAT scores, and their Cumulative GPAs for courses taken prior to Spring 2010. These three groups were then used in the longitudinal study. [See Appendix B]

importance of information literacy to student success at the university level. For example, we found that across the board (looking at students in all of the cohort groups from the original research study):

• Students’ information literacy pre-test scores showed a statistically significant and positive correlation with their success in high school (High School GPA and SAT Scores). • Students’ information literacy post-test scores showed a statistically significant and positive correlation with their GPA in Tier 1 of the General Education Curriculum. • Students’ grades in English 102 showed a statistically significant correlation with their success in the General Education Curriculum and with their GPAs for subsequent semesters (Spring 2010/Fall 2010/Spring 2011).

We also found that students who took the Online Research Lab:

• Had significantly better post-test scores and showed significantly greater improvement in their information literacy skills than their peers who received alternative forms of information literacy instruction [See Appendix A]. • Showed significantly greater improvement in the grades they received in ENGL 102 than they did in ENGL 101. While the degree of improvement may seem modest (.13 of a grade point), this improvement compares very favorably with the lack of improvement shown by students in ENGL 102 sections where the instructor provided IL instruction, as well as students in ENGL 102 sections where IL instruction was led by a librarian in a traditional 50-minute session. The magnitude of improvement for students who took the Online Research Lab was nearly a third of a grade point (.29) greater than for students in ENGL 102/Librarian sections and nearly a half a grade point (.43) higher than for students in ENGL 102/Instructor sections. [See Appendix C] 5

Preliminary Conclusions:

Students with higher levels of information literacy show greater academic success, both in high school and in college. Students who participate in the Online Research Lab make greater gains in their levels of information literacy and show more improvement in their grades from English 101 to English 102. Students who do well in English 102 also tend to do better in college (in the General Education curriculum, and in overall GPA). Thus, greater student participation in the Online Research Lab should positively affect student academic success at the University.

5 While on average, students who took the Research Lab did not receive higher ENGL 101 or 102 grades than their peers (the three groups had similar GPAs for these courses), both one-way ANOVA (comparing students’ gain in ENGL 101 to 102 by groups) and ANCOVA (comparing ENGL 101 to 102 improvement by groups with High School GPA as covariate) results show that Research Lab students made greater progress from ENGL 101 to 102 than their peers who did not take the Research Lab. 12

Appendix VI: Gifts to the University Libraries in 2010–11

Major donations to the collections of the Center for Creative Photography came from:

• The estate of Arthur J. Bell The Center received a $3.5 million estate gift from the late Arthur J. Bell, a former photographer and instructor at Columbia College Chicago. The gift is the most significant donation to the Center since the building was completed in 1989. Using Bell’s gift, the Center created a permanent full-time position, the Arthur J. Bell Senior Photograph Conservator. A national search is under way to fill this position with an expert in preservation. • Sarah Lee, wife of Robert Sobieszek Lee donated Robert Sobieszek’s Archive, an extraordinary collection of his writings, research files, lecture slides, correspondence with artists and writers, and memorabilia. Sobieszek was of photography at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. • Anne Adams Helms, daughter of Ansel Adams Helms gave the Center more than 150 individual pieces and books of sheet music that belonged to her father, famed photographer and Center co-founder Ansel Adams. Turned corners and annotations demonstrate that all the music was clearly played and well loved by Adams. The Center’s Ansel Adams Archive had photographs and recordings of Adams playing the piano, and with the donation of his music to our collection, the documentation of this important aspect of his life is complete.

Materials donated to Special Collections enhance several major collections:

Southwest/Borderlands • The Don Alonzo Sanford Collection includes photographs, ranch records, maps, diaries, and personal letters offering a detailed look at daily life in the Territory of Arizona at the turn of the 20 th century. • Mary Jeffries Bruce’s collection of Tucson Sunday Evening Forum scrapbooks, letters, photos, and newspaper articles chronicle visits to Tucson by prominent figures such as John F. Kennedy, Ronald Reagan, Gerald Ford, Eleanor Roosevelt, Martin Luther King Jr., Coretta Scott King, Yitzhak Rabin, Walter Cronkite, Bob Hope, and Jackie Robinson. • The Humane Borders archive details the work of this Tucson-based nonprofit organization, which provides humanitarian assistance to migrants crossing the United States border with Mexico. The archive contains media coverage of border issues, more than 1,000 photos, large color maps, reports on water stations and the recent debates surrounding Arizona SB1070, “hate mail” sent to Humane Borders, and thank you notes from supporters. • Reverend Robin Hoover, a pastor at the First Christian Church of Tucson from 2000–2010, and the founder and President Emeritus of Humane Borders, also donated his papers. Having worked as a border activist for some 25 years, he had assembled a vast archive of documents pertaining to border issues and migrant rights from the last decade. • The Adalberto Guerrero collection focuses on bilingual education. Guerrero, a UA Professor Emeritus in Spanish and Portuguese as well as a former Assistant Dean of

20

Students, amassed a collection that includes correspondence, conference materials, and materials on his testimony before a special congressional subcommittee on bilingual education. • Emile C. Houle was the chief surgeon of the Sud Pacifico de Mexico railroad circa 1905–1920s and settled in Nogales, Arizona, in the 1950s. The Houle collection includes 4,000 photographs in albums of his travels, archaeological excavations, and work in Mexico. It also includes notebooks and journals relating to the Mexican Revolution, his enlistment in the military during World War I, and his work experiences in Mexico. • The Bernado M. de Leon collection includes photos, correspondence, and ephemera. De Leon was a prominent agrarian reformer in the state of Nayarit in Mexico. He was in the state congress of Nayarit and in the administration of Mexican President Lázaro Cárdenas from 1934–1937.

Vaudeville & Entertainment • The Jill Corey Collection is an important addition to the UA’s vast vaudeville holdings, already lauded as the largest collection of memorabilia and artifacts of its kind in the world.
