Dear Colleagues,
As we plan for ALA 2013 in Chicago, find below the Topics in European
Studies: Call for Papers. I encourage you to consider offering a paper
yourself and/or sharing this CFP with interested colleagues and
graduate students.
Please feel free to contact me with questions. Libby Chenault
Chenault(a)email.unc.edu
Topics in European Studies: Call for Papers
European cultures bridge all disciplines and areas of the scholarly
spectrum (humanities, social sciences, physical sciences, fine arts,
business, medicine, etc.). As these areas intersect and scholars
discuss their respective findings with one another, interdisciplinary
connections are made. These connections can be made at all levels as
we work together to address questions that are ultimately of interest
to us all.
WESS (the Western European Studies Section of ACRL) is looking for
researchers to participate in just such an interchange, tentatively
scheduled for 4:30-5:50 pm, Saturday, June 29, 2013 at the ALA Annual
Conference in Chicago, IL.
If you have a research agenda or a preliminary article or paper in
European studies that you would like to present for feedback or
discussion, we would be interested in hearing from you. Preference
will be given to papers related to our 2013 program theme: “Literary
Texts and the Library in the Digital Age: New Collaborations for
European and American Studies.”
By design this session will be less formal than a conference or a
symposium. It is intended to benefit presenters seeking feedback on a
tentative plan for research as well as those pursuing a more developed
project. Presenters do not have to be WESS members to share their
ideas. Students, new professionals, and seasoned scholars are all
welcome to apply.
Please submit a 250 word abstract for your paper along with a
preliminary title by May May 1, 2013. Please include the following
information:
Name
Affiliation
E-Mail Address
Preliminary Title
Length of time you will speak (Please note that presenters should plan
on speaking for 10 to 20 minutes -- less time for a paper in its
infancy; more time for a more developed topic.)
Please send the proposal in electronic format to Catherine Minter by
the May 1 deadline.
cjminter(a)INDIANA.EDU
Thank you! We look forward to hearing your ideas.
If you have additional questions or concerns please contact Libby

Dear Colleague--
In less than a year, ArchivesSpace, the new online archives management
software suite that combines the best of Archivists’ Toolkit and Archon,
will be released. As a member of the ArchivesSpace development team, I am
writing on behalf of the libraries of NYU, UC San Diego and the University
of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign to provide you with information about the
ArchivesSpace membership model which will be a key component in
sustainability of the ArchivesSpace software and community.
*ArchivesSpace Membership*
The ArchivesSpace membership is part of a new model for open source
software. Through Archivists’ Toolkit and Archon, archival management
software has become a critical piece of processing, managing, and making
information about archival collections available to both staff and users.
ArchivesSpace software development has been supported by The Andrew W.
Mellon Foundation, but there is no Mellon funding for its continued
operation. An essential component of our development project has been to
design a sustainability and governance model that will keep ArchivesSpace
robust and maximally useful, and that will provide ongoing support for its
users.
To address the long-term needs of support, development, training, and
documentation, we saw the need both for membership and for an
“organizational home” for the software. Membership is for individual
organizations that will use ArchivesSpace, either locally or through a
hosted service. The organizational home, LYRASIS, will assume the
responsibilities from us, the project partners, to keep the software
up-to-date, relevant, and meeting the needs of the archives community in
concert with community governance. We have devised a governance structure
consisting of a Governance Board, Users Advisory Council, and Technical
Advisory Council; these groups will be formed and populated by
ArchivesSpace members. LYRASIS will hire two dedicated, full-time staff
members, an ArchivesSpace Program Manager and an ArchivesSpace Developer,
to manage the ongoing support, documentation, maintenance and development
needs on behalf of the members. Membership dues revenue will make this
long-term commitment possible.
*So What Does ArchivesSpace Membership Mean?*
In this new model for open source software sustainability, your membership
means ongoing funds to continue ArchivesSpace development so it can better
meet community needs. The current project will produce version 1.0 in late
July, but ongoing fixes and upgrades will be desired. Some organizations
may want to contribute code to be integrated into later releases either in
an ongoing or feature-based way. Still others will want an opportunity to
see and hear about the latest developments of ArchivesSpace or contribute
new feature requests or documentation enhancements. Most organizations will
want access to the most recent documentation and support (listserv, direct
email, and phone). These are all possible through membership.
ArchivesSpace members receive the following benefits:
- Access to dedicated ArchivesSpace support (member listserv, direct email,
and phone);
- Access to the extensive documentation (all levels of help/training
documentation);
- The ability to serve on the Governance Board, Users Advisory Council, and
the Technical Advisory Council and set directions for ArchivesSpace
- Access to migration tools and any help documentation associated with them;
- The ability to commit code and ideas towards future development;
- and many more.
Organizations who choose not to join ArchivesSpace can continue to download
new releases of the software from its GitHub repository but will not enjoy
the full benefits of ongoing support or community engagement supported by
membership fees.
*Membership Options and Important Dates:*
ArchivesSpace has two membership models in place. This email and the
attached ArchivesSpace Brochure provide information about both options.
1.) *Charter Membership:* Available effective TODAY. Any organization who
will use ArchivesSpace to help manage their archives may become a Charter
Member. Charter Members may sign up through MAY 31, 2013.
2.) *Regular Membership:* Available September 1, 2013 after the software is
released. Complete information is available in the attached brochure or on
the ArchivesSpace website, http://www.archivesspace.org
Because the Charter Membership option is available for a short time, here
is more extensive information about Charter Membership.
*Charter Member Benefits *
• Opportunity to participate in and shape the initial Board, User Advisory
Council, and Technical Advisory Council, including exclusive eligibility
for election or appointment to these initial governance bodies (general
members will not be eligible for election to the governing groups before
2014).
• An extended, initial membership period lasting through December 31, 2014
(more than a year of paid membership).
• Participation in the development of the initial ArchivesSpace user,
technical, and services roadmaps, including beta releases of the product.
• Access to early releases of migration tools to move data from Archivists’
Toolkit and Archon to ArchivesSpace.
• Preferred access to news, updates, etc.
• Recognition through the placement of your institution name, logo, and
link on the ArchivesSpace website.
• Use of the “ArchivesSpace Charter Member” icon.
Join ArchivesSpace now as a Charter Member and take advantage of this
limited-time opportunity, ending May 31, 2013.
*Charter Membership*
Charter Membership is a one-time membership option, only available through
May 31, 2013. The Charter Membership fee includes the first year of general
membership and is based on the type and size of your institution:
• $ 500 – Very Small organizations (includes $300 first-year membership)
• $ 2,000 – Small organizations (includes $1,000 first-year membership)
• $ 6,000 – Medium-sized organizations (includes $3,000 first-year
membership)
• $10,000 – Large organizations (includes $5,000 first-year membership)
• $15,000 – Very Large organizations (includes $7,500 first-year membership)
Don’t miss this unique opportunity to be a part of the initial launch of
ArchivesSpace as a Charter Member and lead the way in online archives
management software. To join us as a Charter Member, please contact the
ArchivesSpace Program Office at *ArchivesSpaceHome(a)lyrasis.org*.
*Institutions interested in supporting ArchivesSpace in consortial or
hosted settings should also please contact the ArchivesSpace Program Office
at **ArchivesSpaceHome(a)lyrasis.org**. *

**Please excuse cross-postings**
There are still a few openings left for the University of North
Carolina at Chapel Hill's School of Information and Library Science
(SILS) summer seminars to Prague, Czech Republic and London, England.
Set for May 19 to June 1, 2013, the two- week seminars offer an
opportunity to gain an in-depth view of libraries and librarianship in
some of the world's most historic places. Registration is open to all
library professionals and LIS students. Librarians and information
science professionals at all stages of their careers have found these
summer seminars enjoyable and worthwhile. Everyone is welcome to
participate, and students enrolled in a library science program can
receive three (3) hours of graduate credit for the seminar. Be sure to
register soon.
THE PRAGUE SUMMER SEMINAR
Prague, the magical city of cathedrals, gold-tipped towers, and church
domes, is one of the most popular destinations in East Central Europe.
This summer seminar allows library professionals to explore the past,
present, and future of libraries and librarianship in the heart of one
of the world's most remarkable, yet largely undiscovered, countries.
During this two-week, residential summer program participants will
enjoy lectures and tours related to librarianship in this culturally
and academically rich country. In addition to visiting libraries and
museums in Prague, the group will also make trips to visit two UNESCO
World Heritage sites, Kroměříž (http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/860) and
Český Krumlov (http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/617) with their historic
libraries, castles and gardens.
Accommodation in the center of Prague allows participants to explore
this historic and absorbing capital city during the week, and the
surrounding countryside during their free time on the weekends. More
information about Prague can be found in the Lonely Planet Guide at
http://whc.unesco.org/en/list/617 and on the Prague information site
at http://www.prague.cz/. This seminar has been offered each summer by
UNC and Charles University in Prague since 2002.
If you have any questions about the seminar, please contact Kaitlyn
Murphy, by e-mail kmurphy(a)unc.edu or by phone 919-962-0208.
"The seminar in Prague was a spectacular addition to my graduate
studies. With the group I was able to see libraries and books
unavailable to any tourist, or through any other program. The guides
were attentive and put together creative and interesting programs and
tours for us. We were treated like visiting scholars and colleagues.
The Czech Republic itself is a quintessentially beautiful European
country and we got to see quite a lot of it. I recommend this program
to anyone!"
- Prague summer seminar participant

THE LONDON SUMMER SEMINAR
The London Summer Seminar is offered May 19 to June 1, 2013 by SILS
and the Department of Information Studies at University College London
(UCL). The seminar will be held in London, one of the most historic
and dynamic cities in the world, and will feature lectures and
presentations at UCL as well as tours of libraries and cultural
heritage institutions in England.
Although most of the program will take place in London, there will be
day trips to visit the university libraries at both Oxford and
Cambridge. In London, participants will tour behind the scenes at the
British Library, the National Archives, the Imperial War Museum
(including its library) and the Wellcome Library (including the
History of Medicine Collection). Visits will be made to other types of
libraries and there will be presentations from experts in the field of
librarianship in Great Britain. There will also be guided tours of UCL
and the Bloomsbury area of London. Some free time will be built into
the program so that participants can explore London and visit other
libraries and cultural institutions of their choice.
"The London Summer Seminar was one of the best experiences of my life;
integrating all the top aspects of many types of librarianship, and
the joys of being with other enthusiastic librarians in one of the
best cities in the world. Not only do you get to visit the birthplace
of libraries, but you are immersed into another way of life...
British-style. You will not want to leave the city or the friends you
make here!"

Nice bright 8vo hc copy with a tad of wear. Henry Ward Beecher copy with
his sort of bookplate and autograph in pencil.
==================
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_Ward_Beecher
<<< At age fourteen, he began his oratorical training at Mt. Pleasant
Classical Institution, a boarding school in Amherst, Massachusetts,
where he met a fellow student, Constantine Fondolaik, a Smyrna Greek
whose parents had been massacred by Turks.[2] The sensational poet
Lord Byron was the ultimate in romantic ideals of the day, having died
of fever fighting for Greek independence against Turkey, and Beecher
saw that exoticism, as well all the romantic passion that his family
frowned on, embodied in Fondolaik. Beecher referred to him as "...the
most beautiful thing I had ever seen...a young Greek God".[6] Both
students attended Amherst College together, and it is probable that in
his relationship with Fondolaik, Beecher, for the first time, received
the sort of unstinting affection that had been lacking in his family
life. He described the "contract" of friendship and "brotherly love"
they entered into, and wrote that they were "connected by a love that
cannot be broken."[7] Beecher signed this contract "H.C. Beecher",
with the "C" standing for "Constantine". Fondolaik died of cholera in
1842, just hours after his return to Greece, but Beecher's worship of
him would endure for the next thirty years. He named his third son
after him, and never attended any Mount Pleasant reunions, since the
one schoolmate he would hope to see "will never greet me."[7]]
