1.  LIBRARY NOTICES NOW DELIVERED THROUGH ELECTRONIC MAIL

Effective September 15, 1997, the Stanford University
Libraries, the Robert Crown Law Library, and the Hoover
Institution Library will send library notices through
electronic mail. This change, which will affect notices
relating to availability, recalls, overdue materials, and
bills, will speed the delivery of time-sensitive
information and save the libraries staff time.

Since all students receive an email account when they come
to Stanford, they will not be given the option of
requesting paper delivery of their library notices except
by special permission. However, Stanford faculty and staff
may request that library notices be delivered in paper form
to their home or office address. The Libraries have sent
all faculty and staff a form that allows them to make such
a request. For more information, contact the Priveleges
Office by calling 723-1492 or sending email to
priv@sulmail.stanford.edu.

2.  STAFF TOUR

Sept. 3, between 11:30 and 1:30, bring your brown bag and join Elena Danielson
and Cissie Hill for a staff tour of Poetry in Revolution: The Pasternak
Family Papers, the current exhibit in the Herbert Hoover Memorial Exhibit
Pavilion.   The exhibit highlights the Hoover Archives' new collection of
the poet's letters.  In addition there are many rare books, such as the
pocket-sized two-volume edition of Doctor Zhivago, perfect for smuggling
into the Soviet Union.

The Pavilion is located next to Hoover Tower.  For additional information
call Cissie Hill at 723-3563.
