Last Fall I requested information on whether or not you the Librarians or Gallery Directors at your institution have faculty status. From the 12 responses received 7 Librarians have faculty status and 5 did not. 3 Gallery Directors had faculty status, 5 did not, and 4 did not know. After several meetings, the President recently approved my request for faculty standing. The faculty were very supportive and fowarded a statement of support to the President. Our next step is to develop a policy. We would be interested in receiving copies of any policies regarding faculty librarians. Please send to my attention at the address below. Thanks to all of those who responded to the first message. Cheri Coe Library Director Paul M. Scott Library Montserrat College of Art 23 Essex St., P.O.
