PROFILE

William C. Roselle

The University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee has announced the appointment of William C. Roselle to the position of Director of the Library.

He comes to UWM from the University of Iowa Libraries where he had served as assistant director since 1969.

Rapidly growing University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee campus has quadrupled in size since the university was established in 1956 and now has more than 20,000 students in its College of Letters and

Science, Graduate School, and eight professional schools. One of Mr. Roselle’s major projects at this expanding institution will be developing the Stage II and III additions to the library, a task for which he is well suited through his involvement with various library construction projects during his more than six years at Iowa.

Mr. Roselle earned his B.A. degree at Thiel College and his M.L.S. at the University of Pittsburgh. Before he joined the staff of the University of Iowa Libraries as engineering librarian he was a member of the Pennsylvania State University Library staff.

A life member of ALA, his professional work includes various committee assignments with ALA and the Iowa Library Association. As chairman of the Midwest Academic Librarians Conference steering committee, he assisted in planning the 1970 and 1971 meetings of that group.

With a broad background of experience in academic librarianship, Mr. Roselle should provide the UWM Library with the kind of innovative and creative leadership that has been characteristic of that institution.
