Alumni Enthusiastic About Free Access to Scholarly Databases
A message from the Chair…
I am delighted to update you on the various libraries' construction projects and to tell you about the very exciting events planned for the upcoming year. Ginn Library's second summer of renovations has been completed, the second phase of renovations has started in the Hirsh Health Sciences Library, and sales and usage during the first year of operation of The Tower café in Tisch Library's Dranetz Tower has exceeded our expectations. The news section has more information on each library, but one thing is clear-the continued support of the Friends of Tufts Libraries is critical to the success of these projects.
From October 12 through December 2, 2005, Tisch Library will host a nationally touring exhibition entitled Forever Free: Abraham Lincoln's Journey to Emancipation, which consists of 6 full weeks of exciting programming including: period re-enactments, lectures, panel discussions, authors talks, film series, a Civil War photo gallery, and music and dance performances! Visit http://www.library.tufts.edu/tisch/exhibits/lincoln for the full event lineup. You are all invited to attend any or all events!
Four exciting Authors Talks have been scheduled. The two fall Authors Talks are related to the Tisch Library's Forever Free exhibition mentioned above. Why not come to the exhibition, stay for an Authors Talk and bring a friend?
- On October 14, 2005, Catherine Clinton, the author of Harriet Tubman: the Road to Freedom, will give the Parents/Homecoming Weekend Authors Talk.
- On November 3, 2005, Nina Silber will discuss her book Daughters of the Union: Northern Women Fight the Civil War.
- On February 9, 2006, Tony Masserotti, A89, will set the scene for spring training by telling us about his book, A Tale of Two Cities: The 2004 Yankees and Red Sox Rivalry and the War for the Pennant.
- On April 5, 2006, the second John Holmes Memorial Poetry Reading will be given by Richard Wilbur, author of Collected Poems, 1943-2004. Richard has been awarded two Pulitzer Prizes in Poetry, selected as the second U.S. Poet Laureate, and was a member of a small poetry writing group with John Holmes when they were young poets.
I am proud to report that the number of Friends has grown to 297 and $89,169.50 in cash and new commitments to support acquisitions, operating expenses, library construction, and book endowments was contributed from July 1, 2004, to June 30, 2005.
A Recognition List of all current Friends of Tufts Libraries is included in this issue. I want to send a special thank you to each of you for giving so generously to the Friends of Tufts Libraries. President Bacow has said that you cannot have a first-rate university without a first-rate library. The generosity of the Friends encourages the libraries to set our aim for the next level to enhance our graduate and research collections. What better gift can the Friends of Tufts Libraries give than a first-rate library, which is an enduring gift to current and future faculty and students?

Alumni Enthusiastic About Free Access to Scholarly Databases
Beginning spring 2005, the Tufts libraries and the Office of Alumni Relations piloted free access to two scholarly electronic databases for Tufts alumni: ABI-Inform and Expanded Academic Index. Access anywhere 24 hours a day, 7 days a week! This initiative puts Tufts University at the forefront of its peers in providing services to alumni. Enthusiastic comments were received from across Tufts schools and from all over the world. The response has been excellent indicating that the libraries and TUAA are truly providing a valuable service, and alumni are definitely appreciative. If you haven't accessed these databases yet, go to the Tufts University Alumni homepage to register through the Tufts Alumni Online Community.
"Thank you for providing this valuable service." A1979 Colorado
"...I would like to access the library resources for alumni mentioned in the last alumni newsletter." MPH2004 Alaska
"I have just received an email about Tufts alumni having access to the online library resources and would love to make use of this service." J1989 England
"I am very excited about being able to access the library database." J1997 Massachusetts
"Appreciate if you kindly let me know the particulars needed to get online access to data base for research. Thanks for offering the facility." MALD 1984 Bangladesh

News From Tisch Library
Installation of a sculpture entitled phylactery 2005 by the mother-daughter team of Sarah Hollis Perry and Rachel Perry Welty was the final item in the construction of The Tower café in Tisch Library. Photo credit: Christine Kittle
By all measures, The Tower café in Dranetz Tower had a very successful first year, exceeding sales and usage projections. By providing an informal atmosphere for students and faculty to meet outside of the classroom, Tisch Library has fulfilled the recommendation of the Undergraduate Life Task Force to become the intellectual center of the University.
Gifts from Friends were used to fund two new Tisch Library initiatives. The Leisure Reading Collection, containing titles selected from the national monthly Top Ten Campus Bestsellers list, is located in The Tower café. The 60 titles in the collection circulated 440 times in its first year! The collection will be expanded in response to student and faculty demand. A sign near the collection indicates that the books are purchased with funds from the Friends of Tufts Libraries. A pilot Learning Commons is being created to respond to the changing learning and technology needs of students and faculty. This area is being designed to create a new vision of the uses of library space while providing technologies and other support for undergraduate, graduate and faculty research initiatives. Friends gifts have funded a pilot collaborative research workstation in the Commons with seating for 4-6 users including a computer, a wireless keyboard/mouse, and a large flat panel LCD monitor. Located in the Reference area, the Commons will also provide access to all the library's web resources, thus giving students the opportunity to conduct library research and create documents and presentations at the same time.
The Berger Family Information Technology Transfer grant was awarded this year to Oral Histories in the Tufts Digital Library. This research and development project will propose the framework to create, manage and deliver oral history recordings and transcripts by testing some already developed oral histories to identify best practices to inform future projects. Faculty will also be surveyed on their future plans to use oral history in their teaching and research.
Over 100 pieces of art have been added to the library from the Art Gallery's collection. Sophia, a life-sized bronze student sitting on a bench with a book on her lap, was a gift of the Kroll family to past, current and future students of Tufts.
Tisch Library has moved to the implementation stage of our second Strategic Plan, 2004-2009. The University Administration is expected to determine soon what projects will be included in the University's next Capital Campaign.
On April 6, 2005, Franz Wright, recipient of the Pulitzer Prize in Poetry in 2004 for Walking to Martha's Vineyard, gave the first John Holmes Memorial Poetry Reading, sponsored jointly by the Friends and the English Department.

Schultz (center) by Jo-Ann Michalak, Director of Tisch Library (right) and Boris Hasselblatt (left), Chair of the Mathematics Department. The award is given to a mathematics major who has demonstrated a love of reading, literature and poetry. Melanie selected the Collected Stories by Saul Bellow as her prize. Photo credit: George J.

News from Health Sciences Library
A blue ribbon-cutting ceremony on April 20 heralded the official naming of the Hirsh Health Sciences Library on the fourth floor in the Arthur M. Sackler Center for Health Communications in Boston The Medical Board of Overseers, Tufts President Lawrence S. Bacow, Provost Jamshed Bharucha, and Dean Michael Rosenblatt were among those in attendance to honor Jane Hirsh for her commitment and generosity.
Jane Hirsh is joined at the ribbon cutting by (l. to r.): Michael Jaharis, trustee emeritus and member of the Medical Board of Overseers; Eric Albright, library director; President Lawrence S. Bacow; and Michael Rosenblatt, dean of the School of Medicine.
Hirsh was founder and former CEO and chair of Copley Pharmaceutical, Inc., a large, successful generic drug company. Currently, she is chair of Collegium Pharmaceutical, Inc., specialty pharmaceutical product development companies based in Cumberland, Rhode Island. Jane and her husband, Mark Hirsh, have two children who graduated from Tufts.
"Thank you to Jane Hirsh for all she and her family have done and continue to do for Tufts," said President Bacow. "This library is the intellectual heart of the university."
Michael Rosenblatt, M.D., dean of the School of Medicine, called the library "a habitat for life- long learning and a space that reflects all aspects of our new strategic plan including research, infrastructure, affiliate relations and curriculum."
The Hirsh Library provides collections and set-vices that support the educational, research, and patient care missions for Tufts University School of Medicine, School of Dental Medicine, Friedman School of Nutrition Science and Policy, Tufts New England Medical Center, and Tufts Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences.
News from Vet Library
The Webster Veterinary Library has added a new database to its collections, the CAB Abstracts Archive (1910-1972). CAB Abstracts is a primary resource for locating research and literature in agriculture, forestry, aspects of human health, human nutrition, animal health, and the management and conservation of natural resources. The Archive is comprised of 1,860,000 records and makes online accessible a significant portion of veterinary research that has previously only been available in print.
The Northeast Veterinary Conference took place August 6-8, 2005 in Providence RI. The conference was hosted by the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University and the Rhode Island Veterinary Medical Association. The New England Region (NER) of the National Network of Libraries of Medicine (NN/LM) exhibited at this year's NEVC. They had literature and freebies to give away, demonstrated NLM databases (primarily PubMed and MedlinePlus), answered questions for people, and just were the smiling face of NLM. Betsy Like from the Webster Veterinary Library joined the NN/LM NER to help present the veterinary literature.
News from Ginn Library
The Fletcher School's Edwin Ginn Library has just undergone its second summer of renovations. This year's renovations included all of the public reading areas as well as the library's office area with the entrance to the library shifted from the first floor of Cabot to the School's Mugar Building entrance, opposite the tennis courts.
The newly renovated facility is ADA-compliant and includes power and network outlets at each reading station, wireless access throughout, furniture designed for comfortable use of laptops, and multiple email stations-all within a brighter, more open design. Installation of compact shelving has allowed shifting some space to student lounge and faculty office space. The intent has been to produce a space that can be adapted to utilize technological developments while maintaining an attractive place for students to study and carry out research.
The Fletcher School's Global Master of Arts Program (GMAP) now operates two classes each year. The 80 mid-career students that comprise these classes are located around the world and come together for three two-week residencies during the year-long program. The Ginn staff is committed to providing the same quality service to these students as is provided to students resident in Medford. The library staff provides individualized research methodology instruction at one of the residencies, delivers books via overnight mail, scans and emails journal articles, and responds to individual reference requests online. During the past year library staff have worked with students at residencies in Washington and in Singapore.

The Tisch Library at Tufts Universtity Hosts Forever Free: Lincoln's Journey to Emancipation October 12 - December 2, 2005 |
Tufts University Sponsors: Private Sponsors: |
|
...a highly-acclaimed national travelling exhibition focusing on Lincoln's quest to restore a Union divided by Civil War. From the beginning of the Civil War until his death, Lincoln evolved from a cautious moderate willing to see slavery continue, to the "Great Emancipator" who ended slavery in the United States. Forever Free challenges us to re-examine Lincoln's role in the abolition of slavery, and to probe the reasons for his change of heart. Tisch Library at Tufts University is honored to have been selected as the only Massachusetts host of the Forever Free exhibition. |

Upcoming Authors Talks
October 14, 2005-Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom
3:30-4:45 p.m., Hirsh Reading Room, Tisch Library, Medford
Every schoolchild knows of Harriet Tubman's heroic escape and resistance to slavery. But few readers are aware that Tubman went on to be a scout, a spy, and a nurse for the Union Army, because there has never before been a serious biography for an adult audience of this important woman. This is that long overdue historical work, written by an acclaimed historian of the antebellum era and the Civil War.
Illiterate but deeply religious, Tubman left her family in her early twenties to escape to Philadelphia, then a hotbed of abolitionism. There she became the first and only black American woman to work as a conductor on the Underground Railroad. So successful was she in spiriting away slaves that the state of Maryland put a $40,000 bounty on her head. Within a year of starting her work, fellow slaves and Northerners began referring to Tubman as "Moses" because of how many people she had freed. With impeccable scholarship that draws on newly available sources and research into the daily lives of slaves, Harriet Tubman is an enduring work on one of the most important figures in American history.
Catherine Clinton was born in Seattle and raised in Kansas City. A Harvard graduate with a joint degree in Sociology and Afro-American Studies, she received her doctorate in history from Princeton. After teaching at Harvard, Brandeis and Brown, she decided to concentrate on writing full time. Her books include The Plantation Mistress: Woman's World in the Old South and The Other Civil War: American Women in the Nineteenth Century, as well as several children's titles. Her latest work, Harriet Tubman: The Road to Freedom, was selected by the Christian Science Monitor and the Chicago Tribune as one of the best non-fiction works in 2004.
"Clinton's well-researched book reveals Tubman to be even more than her legend."
"Catherine Clinton's Harriet Tubman is such a wonderful blend of history and biography that it reads like a novel...."
Friends are invited to join the Parents Reception held in Alumnae Lounge from 5-6 p.m.and the Forever Free Exhibit Grand Opening Reception from 6:30-8:30 p.m. in Tisch Library. Browse the exhibit while enjoying light refreshments, opening remarks by Pulitzer Prize winning historian David Herbert Donald, and music of the period-and perhaps a conversation with Abe himself!
November 3, 2005-Daughters of the Union: Northern Women Fight the Civil War
3:30-5:30 p.m., Hirsh Reading Room, Tisch Library, Medford
Daughters of the Union casts a spotlight on some of the most overlooked and least understood participants in the American Civil War: the women of the North. Unlike their Confederate counterparts, who were often caught in the midst of the conflict, most Northern women remained far from the dangers of battle. Nonetheless, they enlisted in the Union cause on their home ground, and the experience transformed their lives by giving them a new sense of self and citizenship. Women became wage-earners, participants in partisan politics, and active contributors to the war effort. The Civil War brought women more firmly into the civic sphere and ultimately gave them new public roles, which would prove crucial starting points for the late-nineteenth-century feminist struggle for social and political equality.
Nina Silber is Associate Professor of History at Boston University. She received rave reviews from Publishers Weekly and Booklist for her "...provocative, challenging work..." that "...writes ordinary women onto the page and reshapes the boundaries of Civil War history."
"Challenging prevalent misconceptions about women's role in the Civil War North, Nina Silber offers a fascinating account of how the war experience both opened new opportunities for female independence and tied women more and more closely to the needs of an activist state. An important addition to our understanding of the crisis of the Union."
A book signing sponsored by Tufts University Bookstore will follow these talks. To order the author's books, call Tufts University Bookstore, General Book Dept., 617-627-2060. Please RSVP by calling 1-800-326-4001. Suggestions for future Authors Talks are welcomed. Come with a Friend or bring a potential Friend. Hope to see you there!
