  I UK Library Receives State Grant
I
I The Kentucky Department for Libraries and Archives has awarded
King Library a $30,000 grant to fund 60% of the cost of
converting a portion of King's catalog to computer readable form.
Such conversions are an important part of the Department's
network development activity, a program promoting statewide
interlibrary lending. The program's goal is to provide all
Kentuckians quick, economical access to books and periodicals _
held by any participating library in the state.
The award to the University of Kentucky and similar grants to
Eastern Kentucky University and the University of Louisville were
decided upon by a panel of five librarians from Kentucky,
Indiana, and Ohio. Decisions were based solely on the merits of
proposals submitted by these and other competing institutions.
In making the award, Mr. Nelson stated that such grants will be
made once each year while the program continues and as long as
' funds are available.
Fellowships to Newberry Library
