News

This past Saturday, seven University of Denver library school graduate students volunteered their time to help organize a large collection in the Analog Archives. For 6 hours, the group of students, along with Kristin (future DU library school student) and I, pulled all of the Dehn Ice Charts in order to group them by year, month and day. This collection, approximately 7,000 charts, has been digitized and most are available online. The originals now reside in the analog archives room in the very top drawers of the large flat file cabinets. Once these charts are organized, Gloria and Allaina will be able to shift some large format materials from the library into the analog archives room. This project would have been difficult to do without the help of the volunteers. We were able to get all of the charts organized by year, and 8 years are in order by month and day.

Gloria received an announcement from the Japanese Society of Snow and Ice informing us that the Bulletin of Glaciological Research is now an open access online journal, with access to all past issues. Within the next few days, Gloria will add the URL to the
Electronic Journals page. The Library will no longer receive print copies of this bulletin.

Reminder

If you use the library after hours, please remember to restart the computer, turn off the lights, and close the door behind you.
