News

If anyone is interested in traveling as a group to view the Polar Regions exhibit at the Map Library on the main campus and having an official tour of the map library on campus, let us know (library@nsidc.org). We will be happy to arrange it with the Earth Sciences librarians.

No big news happening in the analog archives. Work continues on the Glacier Photograph Collection including matching the photo index to the Austin Post aerials. Our contractors are scanning the materials faster than we can keep up with the QC, but it keeps our students very busy indeed.

Allaina will be scheduling the collection assessment with Randy Silverman, Preservation Librarian for the J. Willard Marriott Library at the University of Utah. This work is funded by the grant awarded to NSIDC through the National Endowment for the Humanities.

Staff Report

Gloria will be out of the office on Friday and the following Monday.

Reminder

If at any time you would like a tour of the library and the analog archives collection, drop us an email at library@nsidc.org, we will set that up for you. We would be happy to discuss any of the check out and check in procedure,s as well as point out interesting things in the collections.

Notes

Thanks to all who contribute to the candy fund!! It is very much appreciated!
