: For Students, Faculty, and Staff 
Dear Friends,
At the September meeting of the Friends of the University of Minnesota Libraries board, members were asked what instigated their interest in serving on this board. Almost every one of us told of happy memories of library use as a child—school libraries, bookmobiles, neighborhood libraries, or library service through the mail. Thus, even though the 14 libraries, the numerous special collections and reference and research sources, the various technological resources, the thousands of rare and current books and periodicals, and the many expert librarians of the University Libraries are a far cry from our childhood libraries, there is an invaluable link. Like the elementary school library or the city branch library down the street, the University Libraries connect for us the excitement and the reassurance that no end of knowledge is available and accessible to us at that place we call “the library.”
Likewise, all Friends of the Libraries, not only the board, can find at the University Libraries deeper and increasingly varied avenues to current information and fuller understanding of subjects far and wide. Those of us who earned our degrees from this university, even just a few years ago, are often astonished to learn of changes in currents of knowledge and prevailing systems of thought when we tap into today’s library holdings and offerings.
The Friends of the Libraries sponsor several special events—some wholly social, some intellectual, some both—each year. This past year we had a Feast of Words evening with dinner and speaker James Kakalios of the U’s School of Physics and Astronomy, an afternoon musical delight with VocalEssence conductor and pianist Philip Brunelle and soprano Maria Jette, and an Annual Dinner with well-known writer Patricia Hampl. The Friends also supported the Libraries in its celebration honoring the 100th birthday of former Minnesota Governor and Libraries benefactor Elmer L. Andersen, complete with an exhibition exploring Andersen’s impact on the University, the state, and the nation.
It is an extraordinary opportunity to be a Friend of the Libraries, and the other Friends are a part of what makes this service a pleasure. Energetic, creative, highly intelligent, well-educated and imaginative, the current board of the Friends includes committee chairs Pete Magee, a scientist and former U dean; Jan Price, a librarian with the Metropolitan Council; Emily Anne Tuttle, a former Minnesota state senator; Karen Koepp, an editor with the Minnesota Orchestra; Judy Hornbacher, a retired secondary education administrator; and Dennis Johnson, a retired college president. The group, working closely with Friends coordinator Lanaya Stangret, development director Kathy McGill, and university librarian Wendy Pradt Lougee, are planning several initiatives for the coming year, one being special attention to preservation and conservation. The Friends board members are looking forward to becoming better informed about preservation and conservation of library materials and to our developing support for the professional librarians tasked with this vital work.
Being a Friend of the Libraries is a great position to be in. It is fun, educationally expansive, and socially a joy. I recommend it highly. It keeps our brains working, our social skills oiled, and smiles of discovery on our faces.

Endowing a Love of Reading
Dr. Robert McCollister, who spent 40 years on the U medical school faculty and still sees patients at the Boynton Clinic, loves reading and the role of the library in encouraging a love for literature and reading. In 2007, he and his wife Virginia endowed the McCollister Collection for Contemporary Literature, housed in Wilson Library.
Historically, the Libraries have only been able to purchase a limited number of popular fiction titles for its collection. The McCollister endowment has created a special section of contemporary fiction and non-fiction for the use and appreciation of the University’s faculty and students. The collection has proved very popular, with a high circulation rate and many positive comments from users, including “thanks for the fun books!” and “the new books shelf is great; I love being able to stop by the library and browse them.”
Endowing a Love of Books
As founder of the Minnesota Center for the Book Arts, U law school alumna Bj Fesler sees books as something more than containers for information. This bibliophilia led her to create, along with her late husband David, a fund to support the special and rare book collections in Andersen Library. The David R. and Elizabeth P. Fesler Endowment for Special Collections has made possible the acquisition of local and regional work by fine press printers and book artists, and in a few cases, work from beyond the Midwest. In fact, the Fesler endowment has turned an artist book collection that was fairly small a decade ago into “one of the finest collections in the country,” as one book artist recently told curator Tim Johnson.
Gratitude to Old Teachers: Collecting Robert Bly
JAMES P. LENFESTEY
When I first learned that the papers of poet Robert Bly were to be sold, I felt strongly they should remain in Minnesota, where Bly grew up and built his influential career as a literary and cultural pioneer. This opinion was quickly seconded by my friend Rob Rulon-Miller, a nationally recognized antiquarian book and manuscript expert based in St. Paul.
Appraiser John Wronoski of Boston assessed Bly as “by any account among the most important of living poets” and his archive as “among the most extensive and complete we have encountered or of which we are aware for any author of his generation (or a subsequent generation).” Mr. Wronoski established a value of $775,000.
I agreed to work with the staff of the University Libraries Archives and Special Collections to raise the funds necessary for the acquisition. The story proved an easy one to tell, for in his fifty years of prodigious literary and cultural accomplishment Bly amassed an international following of devoted readers and supporters. Through my own participation in the Minnesota literary community and the Great Mother Conference founded by Bly, I was able to gather a broad-based committee of Bly admirers committed to the purchase.
Among the dozens of people critical to this effort, I can mention only a few. Manuscripts curator Al Lathrop (now retired) and Kathy McGill of the development office of the University Libraries provided essential intellectual and strategic support. David Whetstone, who has accompanied Bly on sitar in poetry concerts for more than twenty years, pointed me toward Bly friends he believed would be helpful. Among those was New York poet Myra Shapiro, a devoted student of Bly, and her businessman husband Harold. When Harold, an experienced fundraiser, agreed to join me as co-chair of the campaign, I knew we had the tools to complete our financial task.
In 1993, Robert Bly published the poem “Gratitude to Old Teachers.”
When we stride or stroll across a frozen lake,
We place our feet where they have never been.
We walk upon the unwalked. But we are uneasy.
Who is down there but our old teachers?
Water that once could take no human weight—
We were students then—holds up our feet,
And goes on ahead of us for a mile.
Beneath us the teachers, and around us the stillness.
The 2006 acquisition of the Robert Bly papers, held now in the Elmer L. Andersen Library, represents the gratitude of hundreds of volunteers and contributors who believe that the lessons of our “old teacher” should remain accessible to support the “uneasy” feet of future generations of students. On a related note, I was privileged to serve with Elmer L. Andersen on a nonprofit board and to interview him not long before his death. My admiration for Elmer Andersen made my efforts on behalf of the archive he believed in and endowed all the more sweet.
