tation sessions will be the newly
formed Data Services. _
I am hopeful that all interested staff members will take advantage of
this program. I hope too that this can be the first stage of a more
comprehensive staff development program. All of us can profit from
participating in the sessions designed to better acquaint us with
new developments in the different departments within the University
of Kentucky Libraries.
  _If you have suggestions for the sessions as the program gets under
way, please feel free to let Faith or me know about them.
Plwl
The Data Services sessions will be given by Trudi Bellardo the week
of January 27EE. The sessions will cover the goals of the automated
lsystem, the components of the system (hardware, software and data
files), how on line literature searching is done and the contents of
the data bases.
This will be a general review of the entire system, including how it
relates to other library operations, so that even those staff members ‘
who have observed a search will find the sessions informative. Al-
though it will not be possible to do an actual search, those people
wishing to observe one can leave their names with Trudi and she will
call them as patrons come in with research requests.
There will be three orientation sessions: Monday, January 26 and
Thursday, January 29 from 10-11 a.m. and Tuesday, January 27 from
2-3 p.m. (place to be announced later). I hope that each staff
member can attend one of these sessions. I would appreciate it if .
Veach department head/branch librarian could let me know by Monday,
January 19, how many staff members will be attending each session.
If you have any questions, please call me.

The Oxford Comganion to World Sport and Games, edited by John Arlott.
London: Ox or University Press, 97 . -
What is the biathlon? To whom did Tommy Ryan lose the world
welterweight title? what races comprise the Italian triple crown?
Ever heard of bicycle polo? what on earth is cricket anyway?
This new Oxford Companion supplies all the answers. It is readable,
well laid-out and well illustrated and what's more it's scholarly.
In addition to the brief, concise information that we've come to
Vexpect from the Oxford Companions, this one includes encyclopaedic
articles like a 16-page study of-the Basque game pelota, and a
20-page essay on bullfighting. The editor notes that the work is
"intended to help the reader to understand a sport when he watches it
for the first time". It amply succeeds. The one weakness may be a
certain bias toward British sportsmen and particularly cricketers!
Shouldn't one expect to find Johnny Unitas, Pete Rose and Chris Evert?
