After lunch we will hold our meeting in the second floor Con­ ference room near the LSTC library.

The CCTS libraries agree to xerox materials within reasonable request and fair use practice for other CCTS libraries on a non-cost basis. This does not prohibit each CCTS library from following its own guidelines and policies in regard to their own faculty and students. If at any time this policy becomes disagreeable to one or more of the parties it can be reopened for discussion.

COURIER FORMS: How to fill in— We have revised the courier cost analysis forms for fall quarter 1973. Please note that each school is represented in a "from-to (destination)" matrix. Have your courier fill in the date each time he/she does the courier. As he/she goes to each library they are to fill in under the appropriate matrix how many parcels, etc., say ICT is sending to ICJST or vice versa. Save these forms from each week and turn them over to the library coordinator at the end of the quarter. If you have questions about filling in the form contact my office. We are attaching a sample filled in form for your benefit. Thank you for helping with this study.

The phone conversation I had with your staff person, Ms. Jan Sheffner, was most useful in terms of re­ viewing with her past and present loan policies between our two institutions A mutual concern we both shared was how the exchange of books requested on interlibrary loan by Regenstein might be more expeditiously exchanged other than the iisna] mail ?nd fBcultv exchange services. First let me express my understanding of the current policies and practices between the University of Chicago's Regenstein Library and the Chicago Theological Seminary in regard to student, staff and faculty use and privileges. Then suggest how interlibrary loan service between Regen­ stein and the Chicago Theological Seminary could be improved. In my capacity as Library Coordinator for the Chicago Cluster of Theological Schools, I would like to raise the same issue of University of Chicago faculty, staff, and student use of the library resources of the Chicago Cluster of Theological Schools. Finally, I would like to raise the issue of

It has been accepted for inclusion in History Faculty Publications by an authorized administrator of CORE Scholar. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Religion and Reform in the City: The Re-Thinking Chicago Movement of the 1930s JACOB H. DORN Historians have produced a rich and sophisticated literature on urban reform in the progressive era before the First World War. It includes numerous studies of individual cities, biographies of urban leaders, and analyses of particular movements and organizations. This literature illu- minates important variations among reformers and their achievements, the relationships between urban growth and reform, and the functional role of the old-style political machines against which progressives battled. Similarly, there are many examinations of progressive-era reformers' ideas about and attitudes toward the burgeoning industrial cities that had come into being with disquieting rapidity during their own lifetimes. Some of these works go well beyond the controversial conclusions of Morton and Lucia White in The Intellectual Versus the City (1964) to find more complex-and sometimes more positive-assessments of the new urban civilization.' Substantially less is known about efforts to reform particular cities and about the ideas and attitudes of urban intellectuals in the interwar years, especially the 1930s.

  • Library Director and University Librarian
    LIBRARY DIRECTOR AND UNIVERSITY LIBRARIAN The University of Chicago invites applications and nominations for the position of Library Director and University Librarian. Reporting to the Provost, the Library Director is a critical partner in, and facilitator of, the rigorous intellectual engagement that characterizes the University of Chicago. The new Library Director will have a tremendous opportunity to work across the entire university, building upon the Library’s exceptional service-oriented culture in order to further the rigorous academic goals of the University. Working with a team of approximately 200 talented and dedicated library staff, the new Library Director will lead the process of developing and implementing a comprehensive strategic vision for the future of the Library, in terms of both its role within the University ecosystem and its relationship to the fast-changing world of information management. The new Library Director will be an experienced and effective leader who will be a champion for the centrality of the library in an academic research university. The new Library Director should bring a creative, intellectual, and collaborative spirit to the challenge of making a library that is already well respected and beloved for the depth of its collections and prominence both on- and off-campus even more central to the University of Chicago’s mission and even more recognized around the nation and world. The Joseph Regenstein Library University of Chicago, Library Director and University Librarian Page 2 ABOUT THE UNIVERSITY The University of Chicago is a research university in a dynamic urban setting that has driven new ways of thinking since 1890.

HILDEBRAND Any opinions expressed in this memoir are those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the views of the National Academy of Sciences. Biographical Memoir COPYRIGHT 1999 NATIONAL ACADEMIES PRESS WASHINGTON D.C. Courtesy of the Los Alamos National Laboratory SAMUEL KING ALLISON November 13, 1900–September 15, 1965 BY ROGER H. HILDEBRAND AMUEL K. ALLISON began his professional life at a time of Sintense interest in the properties and interactions of X rays. His contributions to the field were immediately recog- nized by the scientific community and especially by A. H. Compton, who was responsible for bringing him back to his alma mater, the University of Chicago. It was also near the time when Cockroft-Walton accelerators and then Van de Graaff machines began producing beams of protons and deuterons. His contributions to nuclear and atomic phys- ics, using these accelerators, were well recognized during his lifetime, but they have grown in significance with the emergence of new fields, especially nuclear astrophysics. FAMILY AND EARLY YEARS Allison always regarded himself as a product of the Uni- versity of Chicago and its surrounding community, Hyde Park. He attended the John Fiske Grammar School and Hyde Park High School. His father Samuel Buell Allison was the principal of an elementary school in the Chicago Public School System. The family owned one of the first automobiles in the neighborhood. When school was out they would drive with their friends to the family summer home near Three Lakes, Wisconsin.
