THINK ABOUT IT; "The Council on Library Resources said this week it
has granted $103,000 to the Graduate Library School of the University
of Chicago to support postdoctoral fellowships to be offered over a
two-year period beginning in June 1974. The fellowships will be award-
ed to persons with Ph.D.'s in fields other than librarianship for work
toward the M.A. degree in librarianship at Chicago. Fellows will
receive full tuition and stipends up to $7,800, depending on need and
number of dependents.
The program seeks to enlist candidates who have demonstrated high
intellectual achievement in other fields and, if given the opportunity,
would find a career in librarianship challenging and rewarding.
· Applications for 1974-75 will be received up to Feb. 1, 1974.
Awards will be announced April l, 1974. Interested candidates should
apply to the Dean of Students, Graduate Library School, University of
Chicago, 1100 East 57th Street, chicago, Ill. 60637." (Higher Educa-
tion and National Affairs, 22;5, Nov. 16, 1973) »
It may be worthwhile to give this matter some thought. The Univer-
sity of Chicago should be able to produce at least 7 "librarians" by
the summer of 1976 with the support money from CLR. It seems reason-
able to expect these 7 will be in prime positions to accept top jobs
in the academic libraries of this country by 1978-79. An argument
could be made that 7 isn't such a large number so what harm can there
be? The number 7 represents the people that could go through the pro-
gram supported by the CLR grant. There are evidently no restrictions
on the number that could go through the program supported by some other
means. Maybe this is a trend. California and the University of Tenn.
are only hiring librarians that have a minimum of two masters degrees.
When this information is processed (with other items that have not yet
been published), the conclusion that there are rough days ahead for the
single masters librarian seems quite plausible. (TPM)

staff of the University in matters related to staff development and wel-
fare. The Association is currently acting upon the staff response to
the cessation of the 4:00 P.M. 'summer hours’ policy. The Library Staff

cerning the "UNOFFICIAL" item in the last ‘Green Bean'. All three notes
objected to the inclusion of that item. Letters to the editor should
be addressed to T.P. Marcum, 310A King Library. Letters of all kinds
will be received gladly.

CLOSE THE CATALOG: “A statement was distributed which was prepared by
Richard Dougherty suggesting the need for ARL to investigate consider-
ations relating to the advisability of ARL libraries closing their card
catalogs at a specified point in time, and beginning new card catalogs.
The statement was discussed at some length. It was felt that the Lib-
rary of Congress would have to take leadership in this area, and that
while the proposal was of considerable interest to ARL members the A
matter should be referred to the Commission on Organization of Resources
for further consideration." (Minutes of the Fortieth Meeting of the
Board of Directors of the Association of Research Libraries, Washington,
D.C., Oct. 4,5, 1973) Could this be a new lease on life? (TPM)
