library beat Wittliff hosts speakers, public reception The Wittliff Collections join the University Archives Oct. 26 for Texas State’s seventh annual observance of American Archives Month—a time to reflect on the importance of collecting and preserving historical, cultural and organizational records. This election year’s topic is Presidential Libraries and Archives, and the Wittliff welcomes to the podium two staff members of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum: Director Alan C. Lowe and Supervisory Archivist Brooke L. Clement. The Bush Presidential Library is currently in a temporary facility in Lewisville, Texas, just north of Dallas. Soon the staff will begin moving holdings into a new facility on the campus of Southern Methodist University. The dedication is planned for early 2013. Lowe and Clement will speak about the

research significance of presidential archives, the process of establishing a new presidential library and the logistics and challenges involved in moving such a historically valuable collection. The program will begin at 2:00 p.m. at the Wittliff Collections on the seventh floor of the Alkek Library. Both speakers will take questions from the audience after their talks. A public reception will follow. Admission to the program and reception is free, and students are especially encouraged to attend. Program attendance is not required to attend the reception. RSVP to southwesternwriters@txstate.edu. For further information, contact Wittliff Collections Lead Archivist Katie Salzmann at 512.245.3861 or ks31@txstate.edu. —Courtesy of Michele Miller

Correction:

In the Oct 24 issue of The University Star, the article, “New club finishes on top in first competition,” Kaylin Mobley was quoted and citied as the vice president of the club. Mobley is incorrect, Kayllie Cooper is actually the vice president of the club and all quotes attributed to Mobley should have been attributed to Cooper.
