FROM THE EDITOR'S DESK
There seems to be a crack in the foundation of the Tlitorial
Staff. There was a slight typo in the last Qreen Bean, and
before it shows up in the Chronicle of Higher Education, I'd like
to print the correct version. The Carnahan Conference for April
29-30, "Improving Personal Communication," features a workshop on
g overcoming public speaking, not "public peaking!" Sorry about
that.
There isn‘t much news in this Green Bean, but there are
quite a few staff features. Thanks to everyone who submitted
pieces for inclusion.

Ls/2000 UPDATE
The following, written by Tari Keller and Mike Lach, is
taken from a recent issue of Library Notes.
The Library has completed its preliminary testing of the
LS/2000 system and is now expanding access to the LS/2000
online catalog. In the late spring and early summer,
approximately 20 online catalog terminals will be installed
in the reference room of M.I. King Library. Over the
summer, additional terminals for the online catalog and
automated circulation will be installed in the branch and
associate libraries. By the start of the fall semester, the
LS/2000 system will be available in all libraries on campus.
l The online catalog now includes over 450,000 titles. By the
end of the 1986/87 fiscal year, the database will include
90% of the total library collections (over 800,000 titles).
To facilitate the development of the online catalog, the
card catalog in King Library has recently been "frozen“:
cataloging after January 1, 1986 is reflected only in the
online catalog. This means that withdrawals, transfers, `
changes in call numbers, etc., are reflected only in the
online catalog. Thus, if you are unable to locate materials
in the card catalog or are unsure about the accuracy of
card—catalog information, please consult the online catalog
or see a librarian.
. For those of you who have not yet experienced using Ls/2000,
we encourage you to try it! The terminals are equipped with
guides to using the online catalog, and staff members are
available to answer questions and provide one~on—one
tutorials. A training committee has also been formed to
develop other training packages. By the fall semester there
will be available a 10-page searching guide, a 50—minute
‘ lecture/monitor presentation (for use with large groups) a
computer-assisted instruction package (for individual self
guided instruction) and a short videotaped presentation »n
the LS/2000 system as a whole. For further information,
call the Reference Department at 257-1631.

SOMETHING INTERESTING ABOUT...

graduate assistant, has received the University of Kentucky
College of Library and Information Science Melody Trosper Award.

student. Ms. Cox has been a graduate assistant in P/N/M since

THE BRADY COLLECTION IN THE UNIVERSITY OF KENTUCKY ART LIBRARY
The Art Library has an excellent study collection of seven
Japanese woodblock prints and reproductions that were donated by
the late Dr. George K. Brady, professor of English. Dr. Brady
visited Japan in 1948 as a literary advisor to the American
Military Government. His position was important enough to be
granted an audience, along with other members of his commission,
with Emperor Hirohito.
Included in the collection are works by two of the most
important figures in the history of Japanese art, Hokusai (1740-
1849) and Hiroshige (1797-1858). Many people are familiar with
Hokusai's series, The Thirty-six Views of Mt. Fuji. The Brady
Collection includes a woodblock reproduction of number nine:
"Fuji in a Thunderstorm." Hiroshige is represented by an
original woodblock print and two woodblock reproductions. The
print is from the Fifty-three Stations of the Tokaido series, one
of the most popular series of landscape prints. The two
¤ reproductions are also of important works in Hiroshige's oeuvre:
"Snowfall at Gion Shrine", from the series Famous Places of
Kyoto, and "Kinryzan Temple at Asakusa", from the series One
Hundred Views of Famous Places in Edo.
The remaining prints show the impact of Hokusai and Hiroshige
on their followers. They include a print by Hiroshige II (1826-
1869), who, in addition to being a student of Hiroshige, became ‘
his adopted son and later even married his daughter! Like his
master, he specialized in landscapes. In the early twentieth
century, there was a revival of interest in the landscape print.
Kawase Hasui (1883-1957) and Kasamatsu Shiro (1898- ) were
leaders in this movement and the collection includes one print by
each of them: "Spring Snow" and "The Yomei Gate at Nikko in the
Snow".
We are very fortunate to have this collection, which provides
not only pleasant viewing but a well-rounded introduction to the
Japanese woodblock print. It can be seen on permanent display ‘u
the Art Library. (Submitted by Meg Shaw)
SOFTBALL, ANYONE?
The University of Kentucky Libraries Co-recreational team is
looking for interested players to join them (Our ranks have
thinned out from last year.). We call ourselves the HAPPY
BOOKERS and play against other UK teams; some teams are students,
some UK staff and faculty, other teams are mixed. In the past
the HAPPY BOOKERS has had faculty, staff, student workers, and

 -3-
library science students as well as spouses on our team.
Librarians from LCC and loyal library users are welcome to join
our team, too.
The Summer season will begin around June 12 (the beginning of
the eight week summer session). We need to start practice now to
· get in shape for the competition. Practice will start on
Saturday, April 26 at 11:00 am in the practice field behind
Seaton Athletic Center here on campus. Hank Harken will be
returning to give us a pep talk and some expert coaching. Lunch
will follow in the picnic area behind the practice field. We
will decide on times for future softball practices at the April
26 practice - picking times convenient to the majority of
interested people. Come one, come all - it's a lot of fun; and ‘
no, you don't have to be "good" to play on our team, you just
need to like the game and the camaraderie. For more info, call:
Glenn MacAninch, 257-8611 or Patty Powell, 257-8397. (Submitted
