the books they read.

The Friends of the University of Colorado Libraries will hold its annual
Information Day at Norlin Library on the CU-Boulder campus Wednesday, January
10, from 9:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. The event will be in the Center for British
and Irish Studies on the fifth floor of the library. Information Day is free
and open to the public and no reservations are required.
Jim Williams, dean of the CU Libraries, and Claudine Garby, president of
the Friends, will welcome participants. Attendees will view "Going to
Extremes: Polar Exploration," an exhibit prepared by the Special Collections
department in recognition of the 2007 International Polar Year. Guests also
are invited to visit a "smart" classroom where reference librarians
will provide computer training.
At noon, guests will return to the Center for British and Irish Studies
for a light, catered lunch.
Following lunch, David Hays, CU Libraries archivist, will speak on the World
War II U.S. Navy Japanese/Oriental Language School Archival Project. The
project's first archival papers were received in 1992 with the acquisition
of materials collected by Capt. Roger Pineau USNR and William Hudson. This
information on graduates of the U.S. Navy Japanese/Oriental Language School
at CU-Boulder from 1942 to 1946 was collected for inclusion in the official
World War II naval history record.
The Japanese/Oriental Language School Archival Project has continued to
acquire papers, photographs, correspondence and records in the form of major
collections and small manuscripts. These papers document the involvement
of the school's graduates in World War II activities such as code breaking,
translation and intelligence; postwar teaching of Japanese language and culture
in higher education; and reconciliation projects with Japan. The ever-growing
archive is available for use by scholars in Japanese history; World War II
history, diplomacy and foreign affairs; and East Asian language and culture.
The purpose of Information Day is to inform citizens that Norlin Library
is accessible to them and to familiarize people with how to use the library,
the largest facility of its kind in the Rocky Mountain area.
The event is co-sponsored by the Daily Camera newspaper. Pay parking is
available in the Euclid Avenue AutoPark near Broadway.

a recent year in Bosnia and The Hague. This book was selected by the
Chicago Tribune for Twelve Best Mysteries of 2002.
“Harmful Intent,” a medical thriller, was
published in 2000; that year he was a
finalist for the Colorado Book Award for Fiction. Baine
Kerr has published a book of
short stories titled “Jumping-Off Place.” He
was one of 100 authors selected by the
National Endowment for the Arts for a 1983 fellowship
in fiction, and has been
anthologized in Best American Short Stories, the University
Press of Colorado, and
elsewhere.
