Extending Archives: Folklife, Social History, And The Work Of R. Henderson Shuffler, Matthew S. Darby Jan 1999

Extending Archives: Folklife, Social History, And The Work Of R. Henderson Shuffler, Matthew S. Darby

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

R. Henderson Shuffier set the historical record straight. Throughout his career, this self-proclaimed "myth-killer"' urged Texans, and anyone else who would listen, to reconsider what it meant to be Texan and how to study Texas history. As curator of the University of Texas's Texana Program and later as the first director of the Institute ofTexan Cultures in San Antonio, Shuffier expanded the traditional scope of Texas history beyond political, economic, and military achievements and presented a more complete, unbiased picture of the state's heritage that included groups previously underrepresented in historical and public discourse. At a time when academia was …

Expanding The Community Connection In Minnesota, Mark A. Greene Jan 1999

Expanding The Community Connection In Minnesota, Mark A. Greene

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

A full thirty years ago Rudy Vecoli, director of the Immigration History Research Center at the University of Minnesota, reminded archivists that "the portrayal of diversity has been an ideal to which we have paid lip service rather than a task to which we have addressed ourselves." Gradually, lip service paid to diversity within archival and museum organizations-whether it be a diverse staff or diverse collections or diverse exhibits-is giving way to sustained and effective action. There is a large measure of enlightened self-interest driving this action; even for the relatively homogenous populations in the states of the upper Midwest, …

Documenting Cuban Exiles And The Cuban American Experience In South Florida, Esperanza B. De Varona, Diana Gonzalez Kirby Jan 1999

Documenting Cuban Exiles And The Cuban American Experience In South Florida, Esperanza B. De Varona, Diana Gonzalez Kirby

Provenance, Journal of the Society of Georgia Archivists

When Fidel Castro rose to power on 1January1959, Cubans left their Caribbean island in a mass exodus with hopes of returning in the near future. Miami, Florida's geographic location made it the logical point of entry into the United States. Today, forty-two years after the triumph of the Cuban revolution, Miami-Dade County contains the largest concentration of Cubans living in exile, approximately seven hundred thousand. With Hispanics comprising 49 percent of Miami-Dade County's population, Cubans by far outnumber all other Hispanics and are a majority across more than half the county's residential areas. Along with demographic growth and occupational mobility, …

National Collecting Trends: Collection Analysis Methods And Findings, Anna H. Perrault Jan 1999

National Collecting Trends: Collection Analysis Methods And Findings, Anna H. Perrault

School of Information Faculty Publications

The primary focus of collection evaluation and assessment has been the subjective judgment of the strengths and weaknesses of library collections. The process has generally been a local application, often utilizing peer group comparative data. Quantitative collection analysis to support the subjective processes of collection evaluation and assessment is now almost universally conducted through extraction of data from local systems or network databases. National collecting patterns can be studied through the use of data extracted from the bibliographic utilities. This article examines the use of data from the OCLC/AMIGOS Collection Analysis CD and standard statistical series as a methodology for …

Into The Dustbin Of History? The Evaluation And Preservation Of Slavic Materials, Bradley L. Schaffner, Brian J. Baird Jan 1999

Into The Dustbin Of History? The Evaluation And Preservation Of Slavic Materials, Bradley L. Schaffner, Brian J. Baird

Staff and Faculty Work

One of the greatest challenges facing area studies librarians today is preservation of collections. Area studies collections in libraries, the backbone of international studies programs for most colleges and universities in North America, are in danger. Most materials in these collections were published on acidic paper and poorly bound leaving them susceptible to rapid deterioration. Slavic collections, for example, appear to be in dire need of preservation treatment, but there is very little hard data on the scope of the problem. This research project, conducted at the University of Kansas Libraries, is the first step toward gaining a better understanding …

Electronic Stacks: Using Web Sources In Reference Service, Di Su

Publications and Research

The awareness of Web sources in reference service has risen in recent years, as many reference librarians have become more Internet-minded.
