| Abstract: | The Robert F. Kennedy Memorial Library in 1968 was in the process of transitioning from a two-year college to a master’s degree granting university and employed several strategies to accommodate the need for graduate level resources. For example, the library purchased fully cataloged monographs to save time and journals on microfilm/microfiche to fill in collection lacunae. Library hours increased and faculty librarians accepted flextime scheduling to accommodate greater numbers of students. Additionally, the library soon became an incubator facility for other enterprises. This short trip down memory lane tries to bring the reader’s attention to a few of the movers and groovers and events which facilitated the library’s development. |
