  • Give and Get Gene Mcafee Faith United Church of Christ Richmond
    Give and Get Gene McAfee Faith United Church of Christ Richmond Heights, Ohio The Seventeenth Sunday after Pentecost The Twenty-eighth Sunday in Ordinary Time First Sunday of Stewardship 2011 October 9, 2011 Ecclesiastes 10:16-19; 2 Corinthians 4:2-7; Luke 6:33-38 “‘Give, and it will be given to you. A good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap; for the measure you give will be the measure you get back.’” -- Luke 6:38 I wonder if any of you raised a skeptical inward eyebrow when Jim read from the book of Ecclesiastes, “and money meets every need.” Or when I read from the Gospel of Luke, “for the measure that you give will be the measure that you get back.” If you did, good for you. I hope, when you heard those words, that you at least wondered to yourself, “Does money meet every need? Do you get in return what you give? I wonder about that.” I hope you do wonder about such statements in the Bible and many more like them, because if you do, it shows that initial level of engagement with Scripture that leads to action. It means you’re starting to take the Bible seriously, which most people do not. You’re beginning to consider the outrageous possibility that this dusty old collection of stories and truisms might, in fact, be true. And more than true, it might be helpful. And if that mental eyebrow of yours went up this morning at those words from Luke and those words from Ecclesiastes, then I want to congratulate you for being on the right track.

  • Harvard University Graduate School of Design and Harvard Art Museums Announce Collaborative Exhibition the Divine Comedy
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Shannon Stecher Graduate School of Design 617-495-4784 [email protected] HARVARD UNIVERSITY GRADUATE SCHOOL OF DESIGN AND HARVARD ART MUSEUMS ANNOUNCE COLLABORATIVE EXHIBITION The Divine Comedy consists of major installations by Olafur Eliasson, Tomás Saraceno, and Ai Weiwei that explore intersections of art, design, and the public domain CAMBRIDGE, MA (March 11, 2011)—The Harvard University Graduate School of Design and the Harvard Art Museums are pleased to announce an unprecedented three- part exhibition that addresses the converging domains of contemporary art and design practice. Entitled The Divine Comedy, this exhibition is comprised of major installations by internationally acclaimed artists Olafur Eliasson, Tomás Saraceno, and Ai Weiwei, and is on display March 21 through May 17, 2011, at the Graduate School of Design, the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, and the Northwest Science Building. “We are extremely excited to host these path-breaking artists and their explorations of how art and design can powerfully engage the public domain, an area of increasing focus at the Graduate School of Design,” said Mohsen Mostafavi, Dean, and Alexander and Victoria Wiley Professor of Design at the Graduate School of Design. The Divine Comedy borrows its title from Dante Alighieri’s epic medieval poem in which the author presents a vision of earthly existence as an allegorical journey through the realms of Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven. Dante’s masterwork is widely considered to be the first poetic presentation in which scientific and philosophical themes were given central place. This exhibition explores the political dimensions of History (Weiwei), Mind (Eliasson), and Cosmos (Saraceno), and how these aspects of contemporary experience are being engaged by art and design speculation today.

  • ALCTS Technical Services Directors of Large Research Libraries Harvard Library ALA Annual / June 2017
    ALCTS Technical Services Directors of Large Research Libraries Harvard Library ALA Annual / June 2017 The following report includes contributions from Michelle Durocher, Steven Folsom, Jaime McAllister- Grande, Chew Chiat Naun, Isabel Quintana, Susan Radovsky, Lauren Syer, and Scott Wicks Organizational changes: In September of 2016, the Harvard Library brought Information and Technical Services (ITS), Scholarly Communications, and Harvard College collection development together under the leadership of Elizabeth (Eliz) Kirk, Associate University Librarian for Scholarly Resources. This new role aligns the three component and interdependent functions. Staffing changes: Chew Chiat Naun has joined the Harvard team as Head of Metadata Creation, the group whose main responsibility is to provide intellectual access to the general collections acquired for Harvard libraries in the form of original cataloging and metadata problem solving at the title level. Naun comes to us from Cornell University Library, a close Harvard partner both in terms of collection sharing and metadata standards and tools development. Recruitment: Harvard Library is recruiting for its Head of Electronic Resources position. In addition to leading a seasoned team already managing e-resource operations, this person has a strong focus external to the department. S/he will take a key role engaging with the Library community to formulate and implement policy among the twelve schools that together make up One Harvard Library. S/he will consider how collaborative collection development can enhance the current e- resource offerings (within Harvard, within ReCAP, within the Ivy Plus libraries, or other multi- institutional arrangements such as NERL). S/he also will consider how best to leverage open access opportunities as part of a holistic approach to providing Harvard’s user communities with unimpeded access to content.

Harvard owes its very name to the library that was left in 1638 by John Harvard to the newly created College. For 370 years, the College and the University that grew around it have had libraries at their heart. While the University sprouted new buildings, departments, and schools, the library grew into a collection of collections, adding new services and locations until its tendrils stretched as far from Cambridge as Washington, DC and Florence, Italy.
