FACULTY REACT TC) LIBRARY PLANS
DM[r. Willis received the following letter from Dr. George Herring, chair of
the History Department, in response to a memo outlining possible plans for a
new library:
Dean Baer has sent me a copy of your memorandum of May 24 discussing possible
- plans for a new library, and I was thrilled with the proposal you set forth.
Indeed, those of my colleagues with whom I have discussed your memorandum view
this as the most exciting thing to happen at the university in recent years
and, sort of a major salary raise, the greatest morale booster for faculty.
We recognize, of course, the disadvantages that would come from the building
of a new library. The site mentioned would be inconvenient for many faculty,
and the merging of branch libraries would cause some hardships for others.
We are persuaded, however, that these minor disadvantages would be far out-
weighed by the advantages.
Despite a dedicated, able, and hard-working staff, the present library build-
l ` ing simply does not meet the needs of University of Kentucky faculty and
staff. Graduate students and especially undergraduates find its labyrinthine
arrangement impossible to fathom and faulty who have worked with it for years
find it at best difficult to use. There is inadequate study space for stu-
dents and there are no faculty studies, benefits that are taken for granted
with most major research libraries.· When I chaired the Educational Programs
Subcommittee of the Futures Committee appointed by Dr. Singletary several
years ago, we found in talking with students that their major complaint about
the university's academic programs was the inadequacy of the library. Our
graduate students, probably among the most regular users of the library, utter
similar complaints.
A new library would bring untold benefits to the university. It would be a
tremendous boon in recruiting first—rate faculty and graduate students. It
would meet literally dozens of presently unmet needs. It would facilitate the
work of undergraduates, graduate students, and faculty, thus improving the in-
tellectual environment and elevating the attainments of the entire university
community. It would help bring together faculty and students from many dif-
ferent disciplines. It would represent a giant step toward the university's
self—proclaimed goal of joining the nation‘s best comprehensive universities
by the year 2000.
We in the Department of History applaud with unrestrained and unqualified en-
thusiasm your proposal for a new library building, and we would be delighted
to do anything we can to help realize this ambitious and vital goal.
