The stories collected here demonstrate Rutgers University Libraries’ commitment to supporting the mission of Rutgers University and to building a strong foundation for academic success and research. Thanks to the publication of a large, rigorous new study, “The Impact of Academic Library Resources on Undergraduates’ Degree Completion,” we know that academic libraries can have a big impact on student outcomes. This bodes well for the thousands of students who use the Libraries each day, but it also means we have to make sure our core services meet their needs and expectations and that we are ready to support them throughout their academic careers. This year, we made significant improvements to our collections, instruction, and discovery, adding thousands of new resources and making them easier to find.

Allie Beth Martin wrote in 1972, “Rural public library service has been largely overshadowed by urban-suburban crises in recent years.”’ Three-quarters of a decade later, rural libraires and rural public library service are still being neglected and overlooked by scholars and decision- makers, and the national library press and literature.

  • History of Urban Main Library Service
    History of Urban Main Library Service JACOB S. EPSTEIN THEMOST IMPORTANT early date for urban public libraries would certainly be 1854, the year the Boston Public Library opened its doors. But as Jesse Shera has noted: “The opening, on March 20,1854, of the reading room of the Boston Public Library. ..was not a signal that a new agency had suddenly been born into American urban life. Behind the act were more than two centuries of experimentation, uncertainty, and change.”l Before the advent of public libraries there were numerous social li- braries, mercantile libraries and other efforts to have a community store of books which could be borrowed or consulted. A common prin- ciple evident in each of them was the belief that the printed word was important and should be made available to the ordinary citizen who could not own all the literature which was of value. Although it was a subscription library, rather than a public library as we think of it today, Benjamin Franklin’s Library Company of Phila- delphia, organized in 1731, was the first library in America to circulate books and the first to pay a librarian for his services. In his Autobiogra- phy, Franklin declared, “These libraries have improved the general conversation of the Americans, made the common tradesmen and farm- ers as intelligent as most gentlemen from other countries, and perhaps have contributed in some degree to the stand so generally made throughout the colonies in defense of their privileges.”2 Here is that recurrent theme of self-improvement that runs throughout the Ameri- can public library movement.

    JAMES KENDALL HOSMER HDT WHAT? INDEX JAMES KENDALL HOSMER REV. PROF. JAMES K. HOSMER 1635 In Concord, Samuel Swan rented the Wright Tavern to two bakers, Thomas Safford and Deacon Francis Jarvis. According to the Deacon’s son Dr. Edward Jarvis’s TRADITIONS AND REMINISCENCES OF CONCORD, MASSACHUSETTS 1779-1878 (as edited by Sarah Chapin and published in 1993 by the U of Massachusetts P): In 1790 my father [Deacon Francis Jarvis] with Thomas Safford took the bake house which was in the building that was the Wright Tavern in the Revolutionary War, opposite the Middlesex House, adjoining the tavern. Soon Mr. Safford went to Lancaster, and my father carried on the business until 1824 and lived in the house until 1832. He then bought and removed to the farm, lately the property of Col. John Buttrick, and lived there until he died in 1840. The farm was occupied by my brother the late Capt. Francis Jarvis until his death in 1875. Since then it has been owned and occupied by his children, Joseph Derby and wife, and Cyrus H. Jarvis. From the early years of his residence in the town my father owned and cultivated lands sufficient for a small farm in the center of Concord until he went to the Buttrick farm. My mother was Millicent Hosmer, daughter of James H[osmer], granddaughter of Stephen and great-granddaughter of Stephen, who were the descendants of James [Hosmer], one of the first settlers in Concord in 1635. HDT WHAT? INDEX JAMES KENDALL HOSMER REV. PROF. JAMES K.

  • June 2002 Vol. 12 No. 6 MORE GUIDELINES for PUBLIC
    MORE GUIDELINES FOR PUBLIC LIBRARY TRUSTEES By Philip Ritter Now that I have completed all of my visits with the various Boards of Trustees in the Upper Hudson Library System, I would like to comment further on how public library trustees should conduct their library’s business. You may recall that I addressed this subject in the October 2001 newsletter when I suggested that all library boards and trustees should adhere to the following guidelines: • A trustee should never act alone. • A trustee should always agree publicly with all board decisions. • A trustee should not be involved in the daily operation of the library. • A trustee should deal with the issue instead of the individual. • The library director should be present at each board meeting. The Latest Edition is a regularly published newsletter for the I encourage you to review that article and to consider these additional and public libraries in Albany and equally important guidelines which all library boards and trustees should Rensselaer Counties. follow: • A trustee should promote a high level of library service while observing EDITOR high ethical standards.
