The Delaware Valley Chapter of ARLIS/NA is pleased to announce the establishment of a conference travel award to honor the memory of one of its founding members, Marietta Patzau Bushnell Boyer. Marietta, a native of Viennia, Austria and a graduate of the Agnes Irwin School, Wheaton College in Norton, Massachusetts (BA), and Drexel University (MLS), participated in ARLIS/NA through conference attendance and committee work. A member of the Delaware Valley Chapter from 1976 until her untimely death in 1997, she was active as an officer, committee member, and general supporter of the Chapter's work. For twenty years she served as the librarian of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, building that library's collection and helping the Academy's students to find their own artistic styles through acquaintance with the works of other artists. Before joining the Academy, Marietta worked in the slide libraries of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and the Philadelphia Museum of Art. She also volunteered her service at the Ludington Library in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. The members of the Delaware Valley Chapter of ARLIS/NA believe that the travel award we have established is a fitting tribute to a colleague who was especially concerned with offering encouragement to art librarians new to the profession, and who emphasized the professional growth made possible by attendance at ARLIS/NA conferences. This year's Boyer Travel Award recipient is Mary Louise Castaldi, Reference Librarian from the University of the Arts and Delaware Valley Chapter Vice President/President-Elect. Mary Louise will be using this funding to participate in the upcoming Los Angeles meeting of ARLIS/NA. Allen K.
