 · A ’ R OF APPRECIATION A p y T
U A 2 Dear Mr. Willis: L » I _ A
On behalf of the Modern Language Association, I would like to take this » A T
opportunity to acknowledge the work done by Mr. Michael Markiw of the
` University of Kentucky Libraries faculty, as a volunteer contributor to the ~
“ MLA International Bibliogpapihy. _ _ ‘ T _ I
· T As a contributor, Mr. Markiw analyzes and indexes journal articles, essays,
_and monographs on Slavic literature each year. Although this has always been t
a demanding and time—consuming responsibility, the implementation of a new
indexing systemfor the `Bibliogpaphy in_l98l has made it even more exacting, `
_ Thus, the dedication of the contributors has grown ever more essential tothe
production of each annual Bibliogaphy. j - . _
T Since all contributors do work entirely as volunteers, rewarded onlylby dieir
knowledge of the importance of the Bibliography to inteniational scholarship in ·
literature, linguistics, and folklore, the appreciation owed them is especially · ·
great. The continuing service Mr. Markiw performs on this basis,   addition —
to his on—campus service, is one of which both he and the University of
‘ Kentucky Libraries can be justly proud. · _ T `
_s1mQsm1y yours, A _ t · A

Powell. Phoenix, Oryx, 1983. vi, 297p.
This guide lists 3,¢>03 handbooks and tables in science, technology, and
medicine. It emphasizes the pure and applied sciences such as physics,
chemistry, engineering, agriculture, and biology. Generally excluded are
popular how—to handbooks as well as "dictionaries, encyclopedias, field
guides, maps, directories, biographical sources, indexing and abstracting
tools and current awareness sources" and compendia of standards. This edition
includes approximately 1,300 more entries than the first edition, published
in 1979 (cf. RSBR, July 1, 1980).
There are four sections.: the main entry section, a Subject `Emiex, Author/
Editor Index, and Publishers Index. The Main entry section is arranged
alphabetically by title and includes complete bibliographic data as well as
LC card numbers ,ISBNs, prices , and (for government documents) .`Supe;r·intenoent
of Documents numbers or N’l`IS/ technical report numbers as applicable. Most
entries have a brief annotation. Some wtries make references to other
handbooks dealmg with similar information. Entries are numbered, these
numbers being used in the Author/Editor and Subject Indexes. The latter
is a keyword index comprised of significant words from titles and
annotations, augmented as necessary. See and see also refererces are used
throughout. The Author/ Editor Index includes the publishers where no
authors are given. The Publishers Index is in fact an alphabet;i.cal directory.
Handbooks and Tables in Science and Technology continues to be   very useful
reference guide and acquisitions tool for academic, special , and   public `
libraries. (liooklist, Jan. 1, 1984)

. New York--based artist Peter Berg's massive abstract sculptures are especially
p designed for the spaces in which they are built. For the lhtti.=_¤arsi.ty Art
p Museum's central court the artist will construct a dynamic architectural. work,
  brightly colored and complex in composition. Bergt s recent sculpt=  are
  not only philosophical statements, filled with historical references to
  Constructivist art, but witty visual puzzles as well. They .::·E·;al.j§_enge the
