News

We have updated the Glacier Photograph Collection. There is now a special collection page for the DAHLI IGY Glacier Photographs. This new page directs users to a special search page to locate glacier photographs taken during the International Geophysical Year (1957-58). Thanks to the work of Michael Russell, we will be adding more photographs soon. Michael has been diligently checking the quality of the digital files and ensuring the accuracy of the associated metadata. There are currently 917 images in the database. Another 1131 images are in the queue.

In addition to the IGY photographs, we have recently added a collection of images taken in Peru by Fred D. Ayres and updated the National Park Service Glacier Survey Reports (another special collection).

Reminder

The library will be closed for Spring Break on Friday.

If you remove an item from the library, please check it out! If you are unsure how to do this, we will be glad to help.

Notes

If you have any left over Easter candy that you would like to donate to the candy fund in the library, we would be happy to take it off your hands. We also accept cash. J
