Dear colleagues,
I am pleased to announce that Susan Sypko has agreed to serve
as the Davis Center Collection Research Assistant at the
Fung Library. She will serve in this position until a new Davis Center
librarian is appointed.
Sue will provide reference services for the library and archival
collections of the Davis Center, both during set office hours
and appointment times, and electronically in response to e-mail
inquiries. As primary research contact/library liaison to the Davis
Center, Sue will be available to assist with library research,
instructing visitors, affiliates, and students in basic research
approaches using the Davis collections at the Fung Library and the
Slavic collection at Widener Library. She will also provide orientation
programs and referrals to library resources and reference services
outside Fung Library.
This past June, Sue received her A.M. degree in the Davis Center's
Regional Studies Program in Russian, East European, and Central Asian
Studies, and currently works part-time as research assistant in the
Center's Program on Central Asia and the Caucasus.
Going forward, Sue’s time will be divided between her work at the Davis
Center and the Fung Library. She can be reached most easily via email
at <sypko@fas.harvard.edu>.
You may also contact her at 495-4030 (library) or 496-2643 (Davis

Her regular office hours at the library will be:
Monday 1:00-4:00
Wednesday 2:00-5:00
Thursday 1:00-3:00
Friday 1:00-3:00
Appointments may be scheduled for other hours, as needed.
Please note that Brad Schaffner, head of the Slavic Division at the
Harvard College Library, continues to be available to the Davis Center
community for specific research needs.
