Transcript | ACADEMIC SERVICES DR. EDWARD G. HOLLEY Libraries and Registrar Meet Academic Needs Two areas which are meeting critical academic needs of the University are the Registrar's Office and the Library. The breaking of the ground for the new $2.7 million addition to the M. D. Anderson Memorial Library has been of special interest to Dr. Edward G. Holley, Director of Libraries since 1962. This addition will provide space for increasing the book collection to approximately 800,000 volumes from the current 310,000 and will more than double the seating capacity of the main building. Dr. Holley was the recipient of the Scarecrow Press Award of the American Library Association for his book, Charles Evans, American Bibliographer, as "an outstanding contribution to library literature in 1964." The Registrar's Office, under the direction of Ramon A. Vitulli, is primarily concerned with admissions, registration, and with the maintenance of academic records for over 180,000 former and present students. With the increased enrollment at the University, the Registrar's Office has had to work with 4,000 more students than it had before. Mr. Vitulli estimates that the enrollment for 1970 will be 28,000 students. RAMON A. VITULLI 30 |
