RESOURCE UTILIZATION SECTION
I have given below a description of the newly created Resource
Utilization Section.V Initially, I see one of this section's key
functions that of coordinating the activities of librarians who serve
as library liaison with the instructional departments and research
institutes on campus. The range of activities for any individual
librarian will, of course, vary with the assigned academic department.
Some of the functions may include book selection, instructional
activities (ranging from tours to formal classroom presentations),
in—depth reference service when the language/subject speciality of
the librarian is important, working with the faculty and students
in a specific department when patron library problems cannot be
solved by normal channels.
Librarians will be needed to cover the following areas (this list
excludes those academic units served by branch libraries):
Anthropology A _
Classics'
Communications (Journalism, Speech, Telecommunications)
English Language & Literature
French Language & Literature
German—Language & Literature
History
Home Economics
Library Science `
Philosophy
Physical Education
Political Science
Psychology ‘
Slavic & Oriental Languages & Literature_
Social Professions L _
Sociology
Spanish & Italian Languages & Literature
Theatre Arts
Mining Institute
Water Resources Institute
Social Welfare Institute `
Center for Developmental Change
Computing Center
Center for the Handicapped
Human Relations Center
Lexington Technical Institute
We will be checking with individual librarians soon concerning their
interest in serving as library liaison with particular units. We
hope to have some coordination meetings in August and begin the
program - at least on a limited basis - this fall.
