response to members' suggestions. LSO also has a booth at the
annual Library Book Sale.
LSO responds to the needs of the library community by sending cards
to staff members when appropriate and memorials when a staff member
or someone in a staff member’s immediate family dies. When a li-

in Japanese (e.g. business, engineering, agriculture, pharmacy, as
well as the social sciences and humanities) are especially encour-
aged to apply for enrollment.
