PROFILES

Eugene P. Kennedyhas been appointed as New York University’s dean of libraries. The dean will direct the operations of eight libraries at the six univer- sity centers from of- fices in the new El- mer Holmes Bobst Library and Study Center on Washing- ton Square South. The Bobst, which re- cently opened, is one of the world’s largest open-stack libraries.

Mr. Kennedy brings to the position ex- pertise and extensive experience in library administration and technology. Since coming to NYU two years ago as associate dean, he has assumed leadership in the planning and development of the Bobst Library, where a comprehensive multimedia center will be developed in recognition of the increasing supply and demand for nonbook learning resources.

His experience includes eight years in information sciences for several federal government agencies. He was director of the Federal Aviation Agency’s information retrieval program (FAIRS); then chief of the Systems Development and Coordination Staff of the Educational Resources Information Center, U.S. Office of Education, where he was responsible for the design, development, and implementation of the Office of Education’s comprehensive information retrieval program. He also directed the Office of Education’s Library and Information Sciences Research Program prior to joining St. Louis University as director of libraries in late 1968. He held that position until coming to New York University in 1971.

Mr. Kennedy is an alumnus of Villanova University, and of the Drexel Library School. He has done further graduate study in law, English, and management technology at Temple and American Universities.

Patricia Anne Sacks,librarian at Cedar Crest College, has been named to the new position of director of Muhlenberg College and Cedar Crest libraries, Allentown, Pennsylvania. The establishment of a joint library administration program is one of a continuing series of steps in the development of interinstitutional cooperation between Muhlenberg and Cedar Crest.

Mrs. Sacks, who will direct the joint library operation, has the faculty rank of associate professor at Cedar Crest and will hold the same rank as a member of the Muhlenberg faculty. She received the bachelor of arts degree in history and politics from Cedar Crest and the master of arts in library science from Drexel University. She was appointed librarian at Cedar Crest’s Cressman Library in 1966, and her service to the college has included membership on the long-range educational planning committee, which developed a new curriculum, and the advisory committee on fiscal planning.
