S. Office of Education. The purpose of the study was to collect extensive information on existing academic library consortia and to develop a set of guidelines for planning, developing, operating, and evaluating a library consortium. One product of the study was the "Directory of Academic Library Consortia", which is LI 004173. The decision to produce a supplement came out of a desire to identify and describe a wider range of groups that are participating in the growing movement toward library cooperation. The supplement project was designed to include a greater variety as well as a larger number of cooperating library groups. To this end, the criteria for inclusion were significantly relaxed. Three basic criteria for inclusicn were used in the preparation of the supplement. Cooperatives that were included (1) were not included in the directory; (2) had at least one academic library member; and (3) were actively engaged in, or actively planning to engage in, cooperative library activities.

Harder was born in Jackson, Mississippi in 1945, and raised in Minnesota. He attended the University of Minnesota where he studied geography and political science. He began his military service at the University of Minnesota in the U.S. Air Force Reserve Officers Training Corps. Upon graduation in 1966, Harder received a commission into the United States Air Force as a second lieutenant. Although he had dreamed of becoming a military pilot, slight nearsightedness directed him toward navigator training and bombardier school. Harder was assigned to the 306th Bomb Wing located at McCoy Air Force Base in Orlando, Florida. He flew 145 Operation Arc Light combat missions during the Vietnam War as a navigator-bombardier in B-52 bombers.

EDRS PRICE EDRS Price MF-$1.25 HC-$14.25 DESCRIPTORS *Directories, *Government Libraries, *Libraries, *National Libraries, School Libraries, Special Libraries ABSTRACT This Roster of Federal Libraries represents an attempt by the Federal Library Committee to identify each of the more than 1,900 individual libraries serving the many departments, committees, agencies, courts, and other formal organizational entities in the Federal Government. They include six types: Presidential, national, general, academic, school, and special or technical. Part I of the three part roster is arranged, alphabetically, within the designated Branches of the Government, then by country, state and city. Part II provides a geographic arrangement, first by country alphabetically, then by state, city, department and bureau. Part III is a listing, alphabetically, by general subject category or type of library. Within the subjects the libraries are arranged by country, state, city, department and bureau. A descriptive explanation and index to contents precedes each of the three parts. A National Plan for Federal Library Statistics has been designed by the Federal Library Committee's Subcommittee on Statistical Programs. It is scheduled for testing in fiscal year 1971 and implementation starting in fiscal year 1972. The Plan will permit accurate, annual identification of Federal libraries. Rosters, based upon information received, will be issued on a regular basis.

  • Major Rudolf Anderson Jr., US Air Force Cold War / Cuban Missile Crisis
    Major Rudolf Anderson Jr., US Air Force Cold War / Cuban Missile Crisis Major Anderson was the first recipient of the Air Force Cross medal, our Nation’s and the Air Force's second-highest award and decoration for valor. He was our only U.S. fatality by enemy fire during the Cuban Missile Crisis when his aircraft was shot down over Cuba in 1962. Rudolf Anderson, Jr was born in Spartanburg, South Carolina in 1927. Three years after graduation from Clemson University he entered the US Air Force as a pilot. He began his operational career flying RF-86 Sabres and earned two Distinguished Flying Crosses for reconnaissance missions over Korea. After the war in Korea he served with the 15th Tactical Reconnaissance Squadron at Kunsan Air Base in South Korea. He then returned home to the US in 1955 to train and qualify in flying the U-2 (Dragon Lady) high altitude reconnaissance aircraft. After qualifying on the U-2 "he became the 4080th Strategic Reconnaissance Wing's top U-2 pilot with over one thousand hours, making him a vital part of the United States' reconnaissance operation over Cuba in October of 1962." On Saturday, October 27, 1962 Major Anderson took off in which would be his sixth mission over Cuba in a U-2F Dragon, from a forward operating location at McCoy Air Force Base in Orlando, Florida. A few hours into his mission, he was shot down by one of two Soviet-supplied S-75 Dvina surface-to-air missiles launched toward his aircraft high over Banes, Cuba.

Strickland Interview Summary MilColl OH 833 Interviewee: Wilton W. Strickland Interviewer: Sion Harrington III Interview Date: February 11, 2003 Interview Location: Tarboro, N.C. Interview Runtime: 1:28:07 Biographical Sketch Wilton Wayne Strickland was born on June 10, 1934, in Nashville, N.C., to William Berry and Tempe Vada Lewis Strickland. He was the youngest of eight siblings, and was raised on a farm in Nash County, N.C. He attended North Carolina State College (present-day North Carolina State University) from 1952 to 1956, where he participated in the Reserve Officers’ Training Corps (ROTC). Strickland entered active duty in the U.S. Air Force in February 1957. Initially an Aviation Cadet recruit, Strickland was unable to continue with the program because he had married shortly before he went on active duty, which went against the Aviation Cadet Training program rules. He reverted to enlisted status, and attended basic training at Lackland Air Force Base in San Antonio, Texas. Strickland then attended mechanics training at Sheppard Air Force Base in Wichita County, Texas. He served as an air craft mechanic in the 98th Bombardment Wing at Lincoln Air Force Base, Nebraska. In 1959, Strickland entered Officers Candidate School at Lackland AFB, and would receive his commission on February 15, 1960. He then attended navigator pre-flight training at Harlingen Air Force Base, Texas; bombing navigation training at Mather Air Force Base in Sacramento County, California; and aircrew survival training at Stead Air Force Base in Washoe County, Nevada.

You now have a program. We designed this Historical Handbook of National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency Leaders as a useful reference work for anyone who needs fundamental information on the leaders of the NGA. We have included those colleagues over the years who directed the National Imagery and Mapping Agency (NIMA) and the component agencies and services that came together to initiate NGA-NIMA history in 1996. The NGA History Program Staff did not celebrate these individuals in this setting, although in reading any of these short biographies you will quickly realize that we have much to celebrate. Rather, this practical book is designed to permit anyone to reach back for leadership information to satisfy any personal or professional requirement from analysis, to heritage, to speechwriting, to retirement ceremonies, to report composition, and on into an endless array of possible tasks that need support in this way. We also intend to use this book to inform the public, especially young people and students, about the nature of the people who brought NGA to its present state of expertise.

His adventurous spirit would not allow him to sit the bench while this new technology took off. In April of 1911, Hap Arnold began learning how to fly— his instructors: the Wright Brothers! A year later, while flying his Wright Model C airplane, he went into an uncontrolled spin. He was able to recover the aircraft, but this event so traumatized Hap that he didn’t know if he could ever convince himself to fly again.
