The head of Acquisitions has asked that anyone leaving notes, books,
or cards on desks of Acquisitions staff members also leave their name.
Several untraceable items found recently have caused confusion within
the department.

The Systems and Procedures Exchange Center (SPEC), which is operated
by the Association for Research Libraries/Office of Management
Studies, is a mechanism for sharing management techniques and exper-
tise. The Center collects data and documentation related to academic
and research library management and makes the material available to
the library community via "SPEC Kits." SPEC regularly announces new
kits available through SPEC Flyers. Each flyer describes in detail
the contents of the new kit and prices.
The Director's Office receives SPEC Flyers and we will be announcing
new kits as they are available.
SPEC Flyer no. l9 for July 1975 is on library staff associations. For
more details see the Flyer in the D.O.

Dctty Green will be leaving the Library on August 21. Her husband is
completing his dissertation for his Ph.D. in economics and will join
the Naval Research Training Center in Orlando, Florida.
As outlined earlier, John Bryant is assuming responsibility for all
administrative services activities except for personnel matters.
Faith Harders will move to the Director's Office in a few weeks to
assume the position of Acting Assistant Director for Personnel. Faith
will continue her assignment in Maps and Reference.
This administrative assignment is being made for the following reasons:
l. The personnel work of the University Libraries is not conveniently
coordinated with the functions of administrative services.
2. An added person is needed for "coverage" in the Director's Office,
especially in view of the fact that I will be at the College of
Library Science for a part of each day.
3. There is not sufficient time to fill the position permanently
before Dotty leaves. Filling the position from within also allows
us some salary savings to supplement student wages for this year.
