Greenfield Librarian Turns Catalog Cards Into Art
GREENFIELD, Mass. â Once central to any quest to locate books within a library, the fate of card catalogs was sealed with the rise of the Internet and computer searches, relegating many of those index cards to the countryâs basements, storage cabinets and trash bins.
But on a wall in the corner of Greenfield Community Collegeâs Nahman-Watson Library, 128 artifacts from the libraryâs card catalog hang preserved in a glass case â signed by the authors who penned the very books to which the cards once led.
The project has been 14 years in the making for librarian Hope Schneider, who wanted to memorialize the cards after the libraryâs catalog went digital in 1999.
I love this idea.
Librarians in Exile group launches appeal to save Timbuktu manuscripts
A public appeal has been launched to save the hundreds of thousands of ancient manuscripts smuggled out of Timbuktu during the crisis in Mali, which are now facing a more insidious threat: moisture damage.
Dating back over 700 years, the fragile manuscripts range from poetry to commerce records, and are from Andalusia and Southern Europe, Arabia, Egypt, Morocco,and Arab trading ports on the Indian Ocean as well as the region of Timbuktu itself. Initially reported to have been destroyed by Islamist rebels in a fire, the 300,000 manuscripts were evacuated from Timbuktu by librarians and archivists.
Stored in the metal boxes used for their evacuation, the texts are already showing signs of damage and exposure to moisture, and experts have launched an appeal to raise $100,000 to help preserve them. The IndieGoGo campaign from Libraries in Exile is asking the public to donate money to save the manuscripts: $30 would preserve a single manuscript, while $9,000 would protect an entire footlocker.

Brilliant and funny!
Is the modern city library engaging in activities outside its proper sphere, e.g. lectures, story-telling, art exhibits, victrola concerts, loan of pianola rolls, etc.?
