    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles The School of the Library A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the Degree of Masters in Library and Information Science by Christine Michele Curley 2017 © Copyright by Christine Curley 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS The School of the Library by Christine Michele Curley Masters in Library and Information Science University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Johanna R Drucker, Chair Despite the enormous efforts which preceded the founding of the School of Library service at UCLA, two critics in the August 1959 issue of Southern California Chapter of the Special Libraries Association Bulletin--Robert Lewis and Frank Bennett, the latter of which was the Bulletin’s editor--created a stir in the special libraries community when they adamantly went against the general consensus of enthusiasm for the School of Library Service, and rather, vehemently opposed it. In exploring the reasons for and responses to these criticisms, this thesis will present an argument as to why these early critics were erroneous in their assessment of library education in Southern California and why the School of Library Service’s legacy and history, especially the efforts of Regent Edward Augustus Dickson, are essential in understanding the importance of UCLA’s “School of the Library.” Using information which was known in 1959 as well as that which is now known in retrospect, this thesis will assert reasons why the University of California Regents made a commendable decision in approving the School

    CALIFORNIA STATE UNIVERSITY, NORTHRIDGE THE LONG VALLEY: A PHENOMENOLOGICAL PEru1UTATION \ \ A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Geography by Martin S. Kenzer ....- Augu-st, 1980 The Thesis of Martin S. Kenzer is approved: Robert M. Newcomb Elliot ~cintir~ David Hornbeck, Committee Chairman Cqlifornia State University, Northridge ii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Acknowledgements represent the release of pent-up pressures and they are also a sort of confession; those tortuous hours and days of anguish are finally over, and it is now tii'le to credit those who took the time and made it (somehow) all work out in the end. On the lighter side, I must say thank you to the wonderful procrastinations I was able to create: Dodger gam~s, the Pub, that uncontrollable Frisbee, those long thought-provoking lunches, and watching that inimitable fellow we deemed the "Coke Man," are all most certainly a part of this paragraph. To these, and to all the many other diversions that allowed me to .look busy while I did very little, I am most grateful. To the RTD for making my life utterly miserable as I tried to commute to school each day, and to all the automobiles and filth­ producing industries that make the air in Los Angeles so outright disgusting, I am additionally grateful because these are the sorts of things that drive a person to finish a thesis so he can then leave. On a more serious note, to Leroy the custodian, for being himself and for placing things into perspective, I extend a warm thank you and a smile.

LIBRARY UNIvt'tSITY OF CALIFORNIA .7 SANTA CRUZ ^ - LIBRARIES of the University of Californi LIBRARIES OF THE UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA z 733 CI5 FOREWORD This pamphlet on University of California libraries outlines the history of the various library collections held by the Uni versity, provides information on the scope and variety of these collections, and describes the future development that is planned for the University's system of libraries. Like its companion volume, Foreign Languages at the University of California, it seeks to present a comprehensive picture of one of the University's vital scholarly resources. Because it deals with a subject of such great importance to virtually all aspects of teaching and research, it should prove useful to most and interesting to all members of the University community. My thanks are due to members of the library staffs on all campuses and to Professor Russell H. Fitzgibbon of the Santa Barbara campus for his authorship, which, as in his work on the language brochure, combines painstaking research with persuasive presentation. Clark Kerr President, University of California The true university of these days is a collection of books —Thomas Carlyle, 1841 WHAT THE LIBRARIES ARE PLANNING THE LIBRARIES LOOK TO THE FUTURE It is still true, as Carlyle suggested many decades ago, that a university revolves around its library.
