Biography Born in Petaluma, California, in 1909, Edwin Castagna graduated from the University of California, Berkeley, Library School and directed libraries in Reno, Nevada; and Ukiah, Glendale, and Long Beach in California. As director of the Enoch Pratt Library in 1960-1977, Castagna began a Baltimore inner-city outreach program, took over the Peabody Library, and made Pratt the state library resource center. He was known as a staunch defender of the right to read as fundamental to human liberty. Castagna was president of the Nevada and California library associations. He served as president of the American Library Association in 1964-1965 and chaired its Committee on Legislation in 1966-1968. He died November 26, 1983, in Baltimore.

Oral history is a method of collecting historical information through tape-recorded interviews between a narrator with firsthand knowledge of historically significant events and a well- informed interviewer, with the goal of preserving substantive additions to the historical record. The tape recording is transcribed, lightly edited for continuity and clarity, and reviewed by the interviewee. The corrected manuscript is indexed, bound with photographs and illustrative materials, and placed in The Bancroft Library at the University of California, Berkeley, and in other research collections for scholarly use. Because it is primary material, oral history is not intended to present the final, verified, or complete narrative of events. It is a spoken account, offered by the interviewee in response to questioning, and as such it is reflective, partisan, deeply involved, and irreplaceable. ************************************ All uses of this manuscript are covered by a legal agreement between The Regents of the University of California and Flora Elizabeth Reynolds dated June 14, 1999.

Established by William H. Jesse, Direc­ tor of Libraries from 1943 to 1970, the lecture series was designed to bring to campus a distinguished librarian or scholar who would promote discus­ sion on topics of interest to librarians and members of the University com­ munity. The first lecture was given in 1949 by Maurice F. Tauber, then Professor of Library Science at Columbia University. His paper, "Book Classification in University Libraries," served as the catalyst for a reclassifi­ cation effort in the Library's collections.

    70th and 71st ANNUAL CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS of the American Library Association Chicago, Illinois July 8-14, 1951 New York City June 29-July 5, 1952 AMERICAN LIBRARY ASSOCIATION 50 EAST HURON STREET CHICAGO n, ILLINOIS I I 11 ' PREFACE This publication of two years of ALA conference proceedings represents an economy measure. It is an economy necessitated by substantial deficits in the conference budgets, to which the publi­ cation of proceedings must be charged. The proceedings are a perquisite of membership. Copies are being mailed to all institu­ tional members, but the undersigned committee felt that distribu­ tion to individual members should be determined in this instance by request. By so doing, it seemed more than likely that substan­ tial savings could be effected and at the same time the needs of the membership be met. Consequently it was announced in the ALA Bulletin that all members so requesting would receive copies upon publication. Because of some uncertainty regarding the publication of these proceedings, reports of some conference meetings were not sub­ mitted. All material received, however, has been used, with a minimum of editing. Committee on Annual Publications Cora M. Beatty Ransom L. Richardson Leo M.

Davis, Jr. Barbara Immroth Loriene Roy Emilio Zamora “Crises” in Scholarly Communications: Insights from Forty Years of the Journal of Library History , 1966 – 2005 by Maria Elena Gonzalez, B.A.; M.L.I.S. Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of The University of Texas at Austin in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Texas at Austin May 2008 Dedication This dissertation is dedicated to past, present, and future contributors to the Journal of Library History, Philosophy, and Comparative Librarianship , and its subsequent incarnations, Libraries & Culture and Libraries & the Cultural Record Acknowledgements Unlike almost any other project I have undertaken to completion, this dissertation is the product of unplanned, unforeseen, and improbable circumstances. The choice of focus is a happy result of the catastrophic derailing of my original academic intentions. For the happy result, I must thank Bette Oliver and Hermina Anghelescu for creating an uproarious, visually rich, and most intellectually stimulating environment within the 191 square feet that once served as the editorial office for Libraries & Culture (Journal) . If it had not been for the lively intensity that radiated from that space, I never would have discovered that the quarters of a scholarly journal could be the nexus for such wide ranging discussions and deep questioning of academic traditions and the life of the mind.

INSTITUTION Washington State Library, Olympia.; Washington Univ., Seattle. School of Librarianship. PUB DATE 69 NOTE 76p. AVAILABLE FROM School of Librarianship, University of Washington, Seattle, Washington 98105 EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$0.50 HC Not Available from EDRS. DESCRIPTORS Community'Service Programs, *Disadvantaged Groups, Library Education, library Instruction, Library Programs, *Library Services, *Social Responsibility ABSTRACT The University of Washington held two one-week programs for library personnel toprovide:(1) background information about disadvantaged and minority groups who are " unreached" by library services;(2) knowledge of "outreach" approaches and materials for use in library services;(3) understanding of, and empathy for, problems of the deprived;(4) awareness of social changes affecting libraries;(5) desire for commitment to the library's major role in changing attitudes and in becoming a vital force in our society. The recommended library service improvement programs are mostly on a small scale, person-to-personapproach. Some of the suggestions include: (1) training more ethnic groups to work in libraries, (2) employing bilingual librarians in communities that speak two languages, (3) purchasing library materials that are in the language of the community, (4) purchasing library materials that will help the community understand and solve its problems,(5) working with the Visiting Nurse Association to reach shut-ins and (6) training all staff members to have a friendly and outgoing attitude.
