Thanks for this, Loryl. It's hard to believe he's finally going through with it! Alas, I'll miss the party as we leave for a 2-week vacation in California on Saturday. I'll send Harold a note.

Meanwhile, though I don’t recall ever seeing an official announcement, congratulations on your appointment--I hope it's as good for you as I'm sure it will be for the Library! And good luck in recruiting a new University Archivist--he/she will be lucky to report to you.

Best regards,

Rick
