Show / # \ ~h)(*0 THE UNIVERSITY OF UTAH SALT LAKE CITY 84112 MARRIOTT LIBRARY October 4, 1974 Dr. Aziz Atiya Middle East Library- Marriott Library Campus Dear Aziz: Welcome back from your recent trip. During the summer break, Ev Cooley, Marian Sheets, Tom Schmid, and myself have spent some time discussing the final integration of the Levey collection into the Marriott Library. I thought it might help to summarize some of the decisions we have reached in order to complete the project expeditiously. So far as the duplicates are concerned, we hope that you will make your selection among them, which you will exchange for books in your personal possession which will be given to the library when you wish to do so. Duplicates in Arabic will be used by you to implement the exchange agreement you made with the publishing house in India. Certain of the Levey duplicates will be added to our collection where they are superior in quality to the same titles already being held by the library. Inferior titles will then be withdrawn and handled as duplicates. Any duplicates remaining after the above procedure, will be handed over to Roger Mathison to be used in the exchange program of the library. This letter gives me an opportunity once more to express our great appreciation for the work you have done with the Levey collection, and the many other ways in which you have contributed significantly to building up the holdings of the Marriott Library. I personally have certainly enjoyed working with you and Lola. |
