g The Library Associates first membership meeting in many
l years was held on Monday, 25 April, at Spindletop Hall.
{ More than l00 old and new friends attended the reception
é and buffet supper; an additional highlight of the evening
{ was the publication and first sale of The Kikkuli Text,
§ the most recent product of the King Library Press.
(
i Following supper, Paul Willis presided at the business
, meeting. He began by describing the history and purpose
5 of "friends of the library“ organizations such as the
i Library Associates. At UK, the organization is more
Q than 20 years old. In the past it has had more than
i 600 members, published a newsletter and facsimile series,
j and made numerous gifts of books and funds to the Libraries.
{ He observed that the nations's preeminent libraries have
} friends organizations, and that a viable Associates group
é is essential to achieve excellence at UK. Carolyn Hammer
g made a few remarks about the history of The Kikkuli Text
f and presented complimentary copies to Mrs. B. W. Estes
* whose husband first proposed the present edition; to Gerhard
2 Probst of Transylvania University who translated the German
$ text into English; to James Williams, director of public
é relations at Keeneland, whose foundation helped finance
g the edition; and to Elizabeth Hardwick, the evening's
{ speaker. Burton Milward made the nominating committee
( report, and the following were elected officers and board
, members: Samuel Cassidy (president); Betty Kirwan (vice
Y president); Charles Metcalf, Betty Tevis, Bob Evans, and
Jacqueline Bull.
Lewis Cochran introduced Elizabeth Hardwick who spoke on
A "Styles and fashion in current fiction."
i Paul Willis introduced the new president, Sam Cassidy, who
  thanked the membership for its confidence, and proposed
* doubling the membership in the coming year. The officers
i and executive committee will be meeting to plan for the
( coming year‘s program.
* MRAP Questionaire:
As part of a follow—up study being done by Ed Johnson af
Penn State on the effect of MRAP in libraries, we will be
repeating the Organizational Profile Questionaire which was
administered in Spring 1975. Each staff will receive a letter
explaining the purpose of the questionaire and asking him/
her to participate. The process takes about l5 minutes and
all responses are confidential. We hope that as many staff
members as possible will participate. We appreciate your
cooperation.

_ German Books and graphics in the Gallery:
"Books and graphics from Die Eremiten Presse" is the current
exhibit in the Gallery. The exhibit was assembled by Goethe
House, New York, in commemoration of 25 years of printing at
Eremiten ("Hermit") Presse of Frankfort, West Germany. It
is being held in conjunction with this week's Kentucky Foreign
Language Conference.
Eremiten Presse is, by comparison, a small publisher of small
editions some of which were done by hand. It has the added
distinction of having first printed a number of leading post-
4 World War II German writers. Among these are Hand Giese, Hans
Bender, Bunter Brono Fuchs, Horst Bingel, Peter Hamm, Christa
Reinig, and Gabriele Wohmann. Many of the books contain origin-
al graphics. Colorful, often innovative, design is another *
hallmark of the press‘s work.
