We hope that it proves to be a forecast of future endeavours: it is scholarly, and it fulfills a need that has long been felt. We trust that subsequent publications meet these criteria as completely as does this union list. Publications Committee Jerome B. Munday, Chairman Christine B. Simpson Robert Harmon The appearance of Occasional Paper No. 1 fulfills one of the purposes for which the Sourisseau Academy was chartered: "To prepare and disseminate historical scholarship to the university and community, and to present results of research and service activities through publications and other media." This activity of the Sourisseau Academy is one of many that takes place during the academic year. A generous bequest from the late Miss Eva Sourisseau provided the initial funding for the Academy. We are grateful, in addition, to the members of the Sourisseau family for their suggestions. It is fitting that our first publication should be a useful tool for further historical research on the history of Santa Clara County. Through the efforts of Jean Wheeler, we now have, at long last, a valuable source of information for the study of this region. We are also grateful to James Noah, Director of University Relations, Larry Daniello, University Editor, and the University Duplicating Center for their assistance and technical advice. We invite comments on this publication from our readers. Editorial Board Ted C. Hinckley, Chairman Lawrence B. Lee Robert E.

  • Scottsih Newspapers Have a Long Hisotry Fof Involvement With
    68th IFLA Council and General Conference August 18-24, 2002 Code Number: 051-127-E Division Number: V Professional Group: Newspapers RT Joint Meeting with: - Meeting Number: 127 Simultaneous Interpretation: - Scottish Newspapers and Scottish National Identity in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries I.G.C. Hutchison University of Stirling Stirling, UK Abstract: Scotland is distinctive within the United Kingdom newspaper industry both because more people read papers and also because Scots overwhelmingly prefer to read home-produced organs. The London ‘national’ press titles have never managed to penetrate and dominate in Scotland to the preponderant extent that they have achieved in provincial England and Wales. This is true both of the market for daily and for Sunday papers. There is also a flourishing Scottish local weekly sector, with proportionately more titles than in England and a very healthy circulation total. Some of the reasons for this difference may be ascribed to the higher levels of education obtaining in Scotland. But the more influential factor is that Scotland has retained distinctive institutions, despite being part of Great Britain for almost exactly three hundred years. The state church, the education system and the law have not been assimilated to any significant amount with their counterparts south of the border. In the nineteenth century in particular, religious disputes in Scotland generated a huge amount of interest. Sport in Scotlaand, too, is emphatically not the same as in England, whether in terms of organisation or in relative popularity. Additionally, the menu of major political issues in Scotland often has been and is quite divergent from England – for instance, the land question and self-government.
