 By Erma Jean Loveland ('58) Editor of Friends Newsletter Endowment to Honor Librarian Elizabeth NelsonMrs. Pauline Chapple Nelson of Abilene and her children, Karen Nelson Hendrick, ACU Public Services Librarian, and Don Nelson, Houston attorney, recently established an endowment fund of $25,000 which was matched with $15,000 by Exxon Mobile Foundation Educational Matching Gift Programs in honor of Elizabeth Nelson, an ACC faculty member for 23 years. Miss Nelson was the aunt of J. Don Nelson Jr., deceased husband of Pauline and a long time attorney for Exxon.Hendrick said the family wanted to recognize "Auntie" Elizabeth's love and devotion to ACU. "She always encouraged the family in our faith and scholarship as she did students, faculty, and staff at ACC." Elizabeth Nelson, a daughter of John Calvin Nelson (1849-1933) and Lydia Elizabeth Nelson (1859-1942) was born and reared at Mount Calm in Hill County, Texas with her brothers William, James, Clarence, Andrew, Jesse, Dan, and sister Ella who drowned when she was 4. A 1916 graduate of Baylor University, Miss Nelson taught a year at Bonham High School while working with the Baylor Athletic program. In 1918, she became a math instructor in the Abilene Christian College academy and the next year she was the principal of the school. When Daisy and Jesse P. Sewell resigned in 1923, Nelson was given Mrs. Sewell's position as dean of women. One of her duties was to march the academy girls in uniform two by two along North First Street to downtown Abilene for their shopping needs. The Optimist revealed some of the other duties of the dean of women. The girls had to have the dean's permission to leave campus. The young men were quoted as saying, "We must ask Miss Nelson first when we want a date." Before the girls could go out, they were inspected by Nelson. Their dresses had to be at least 3 inches below the knee, and the Dean's measuring stick had to agree. One of her "girls," Lucile Adrain Wilks recalled, "Miss Nelson didn't think it was fair for the girls who lived out in town to have dates on Sunday night when the girls in the dorm were not allowed to do so. She changed the rule so that those in the dorm could have a Sunday evening church date too. Lucile also remembered how Nelson encouraged the girls to be good housekeepers; she would stand up in chapel and invite certain tall young men to come with her immediately to inspect the girls' rooms. Students like Lewis Norman and Willie Treat would reach up over the door facings, get dust on their fingers, and say, "well, look at this dirt!" The Optimist carried articles about Elizabeth taking students with her when she made an "overland" trip in her new Ford car and about her custom of giving Sunday night suppers of coffee and salad for invited guests. The entertainment for these occasions might be listening to a "delightful" radio program. When the Dean took a leave of absence to do graduate work at Baylor University, the Optimist reported, "Her unyielding fairness and generosity and her blameless Christian life made her a big favorite with the students." She received a MA from Baylor in 1927. As the dorm director in 1929, Miss Nelson called the Abilene Fire Department to report the North First Street Administration Building fire. Later, President Batsell Baxter told the Optimist reporter that about half of the library books were carried to safety by the dormitory students. In 1930, during the Silver Anniversary of Abilene Christian College, Miss Margaret Bishop, library director during 1928-1934, reported that the library was making a good recovery after the fire. Holdings now included 10,000 books and |
 pamphlets, half of which were new, 5 daily newspapers and 87 periodicals. Batsell Baxter was President, James F. Cox, Dean; and E. W. McMillan was the college church minister. Soon after the death of Elizabeth's father in 1933, her mother came to live in Abilene. Shortly thereafter Nelson became the library director. In 1936, she took a leave of absence to obtain her library science degree at the prestige Columbia University in New York City. As the new library director, Miss Nelson carefully explained, in her firm but fair fashion, the library hours, stack privileges, reserves and fines, and check out privileges for the Ad Building library. And then during the following July, she directed the transfer of the books to the main floor of Chambers Hall, which provided more shelving and study space. In an oral history interview, Marguerite Anderson, a former ACU Librarian, told Lawrence Smith, "We had a chute carrying the books over to the other building [Chambers]. The chief problem in logistics was we had to take the books off those metal stacks on the third floor of the Administration Building, move the stacks over to Chambers Hall, and put the books back on those same stacks over there." The library was now housed on the middle floor of Chambers Hall with the cafeteria and kitchen below it and men's rooms on the third floor above it. In November 1939, Miss Nelson was asked by an Optimist reporter about the changes she had seen in her tenure at ACC. "Methods of study and of teaching are the main changes I see. Then all of the teaching was by textbooks and now we can't meet the demand for research books and periodicals for outside study." During the summer session of 1942, Miss Nelson took a medical leave to recuperate from a broken hip. Elizabeth and her mother, Lydia, went to Lora Nelson's Dallas home for treatment and rest. Lora was Lydia's granddaughter. Elizabeth's health declined rapidly during the next three months. She died September 23, 1942. Her dear friend, Rhetta Scott Garrett penned these words about Elizabeth:
President Don H. Morris wrote his thoughts this way: "Miss Nelson served Abilene Christian College faithfully for 23 years and as librarian was one of the most efficient members of the ACC faculty. She was cooperative with all of those in our organization with whom she worked. Her genial personality, her personal interest in every student, and her pure Christian character made her one of the most beloved personages ever to serve the students of Abilene Christian College." The ACU Library welcomes this library endowment to honor Miss Elizabeth Nelson and her life of service to Christian Education.

Endowments Keep GivingThe ACU Library has been blessed through the years with many friends and benefactors. All gifts to the library are needed and appreciated and every gift of prayer, time, and money contributes to the excellence and growth of the library. This year at Homecoming the Friends of ACU Library will be honoring those who have established endowments for the library. This recognition is long overdue, as endowments are important to the continued growth and stability of the library.Currently, the ACU Library has 13 endowments. These endowments are for materials in areas such as Bible, English, sciences, and special collections. Some endowments are not for specific subject areas but are for general collection development. All of these endowments, whether subject |
specific or not, whether large or small, are important and needed to continue to serve the ACU community and beyond.
The library uses the earnings from the endowments to enhance and develop its collections. The library must continue to increase its endowments if it wants to keep up with new books and materials which are being published daily and with the new information that is being published digitally. To continue to meet its mission, the library must not only continue to increase its holdings, but it must also increase the rate at which it increases its holdings. That is, during a year the library must add more books and materials than it did during the previous year. Without endowments this type of growth would not even be imaginable much less possible. An endowment is truly a gift that keeps on giving. Each and every year the library is able to purchase materials from endowment earnings. This permanent funding provides for financial stability and strength to the library. I encourage you to come join us at Homecoming as we honor the individuals and families that have established endowments for the ACU Library. And maybe you too will want to be among these who have provided for the long-term growth of the library. |

By Marsha Harper ('59) Library Director Technology, Other Changes Fuel Improvements
Change equals challenge, none can deny, but some challenges are easier to meet than others because of their benefits. Among the changes for the better we have happily grappled with this year are a new automation system for Abilene Library Consortium, new technology for Brown Library, new status for five librarians, and "new money" added to the materials budget.
A Major Move - Abilene Library Consortium spent most of 2001-02 on the quest for a new software system for all library functions including ALCON, the online catalog. We selected RMG Consultants Inc., an automation consulting firm, to help us evaluate our options and then to negotiate a contract with the new vendor, the SIRSI corporation. SIRSI's Unicorn product was installed in June. Conversion of our catalog records began at the same time. Other migration activities followed and are continuing but most functions are up and running. Staff in every library department are working to learn how to do everything a different way in the new system. Since the whole campus is getting adjusted to a new software system (Banner) for all business and personnel transactions, it feels like a double whammy. However, patrons are finding the catalog easy to search. They enjoy such enhancements as summaries, reviews, table of contents, and book cover art. System employees are helping customize the interface to suit the particular needs of each library. Going Wireless - This spring Brown Library became the first building on campus to be wireless throughout. As of this fall students can bring in a laptop computer or check one out at the circulation desk and use it anywhere in the library to search library resources or the Internet or for word processing, etc. The wireless network and 16 laptops were acquired with a grant from the Telecommunications Infrastructure Fund. The Better to Read With - Another leading edge technology allows blind or partially-sighted people to read or listen to our online catalog (among other things) and to print in either large type or Braille. The Ed Rachal Foundation of Corpus Christi funded this welcome enhancement to Public Services. T & P - ACU librarians have take strides toward achieving parity with classroom faculty for tenure and promotion. Our departmental criteria have been approved and this fall two librarians will be applying: Mark McCallon and Craig Churchill. Because of a previous lack of uniformity in campus policies, five librarians who could now be hired as Assistant Professors were still working as Instructors. Their deserved status as Assistant Professors and their time in rank were recognized in May of '02 in a letter from President Money. The five are: Gary Oliver, Laura Baker, Jana Davis, Virginia Bailey, and Melissa Johnson. More Books, More Everything - A $30,000 enhancement to the materials budget for inflationary increases was granted in '02. Since price increases for periodicals are always steep, much of the money will go in that direction. In addition, the library received last year $185,626 from the university "To Lead and To Serve" campaign, earmarked for acquisitions in the arts and sciences. One-third of the money was spent last year. This year we are spending another one-third of the total to fund reference books, general interest and interdisciplinary titles, periodicals, bookbinding, videos, and special needs. Also, we were able to give increased allocations to each department this year. |
Technical Services Shines - Despite losing one half-time staff person and having to train a new regular staff member to assume some cataloging duties of Amy Stults, one of our former catalogers, the Technical Services staff reports:
RSI set on a new Platform - The Restoration Serials Index is now operating on a new software platform that can be searched on the WorldWideWeb. It also enables indexers to submit entries on the Web. Once entries are approved by an editor, they are added to the online index database. This means index users can gain access to more recent articles than has ever been possible. Indexers and editors are rejoicing over this upgrade in service; we are also happy that the Web product greatly streamlines our work. The new software was authored by Cory Friend, an ACU alumnus in Computer Science, and was funded by the Christian College Librarians. Other Improvements made during the year:
Like bringing order out of chaos, Brown Library is incorporating changes and thriving in the midst of them. We thank God for our blessings (sometimes disguised as challenges) - and we thank our Friends for their solid support. |

A Personal AnnouncementMid-August of 2001 marked my 15th anniversary as Library Director and my 30th year of full-time service to ACU as a professional librarian. They have been wonderful years, full of growth and improvement (for the library and for me as well) and I have loved my jobs--from Media Services Librarian to Public Services Librarian to Library Director.But even wonderful years pile up into a heavy load and "one day has to be the last day." I am retiring as of the end of FY |
'03, while I can still carry the load (well, most of the time) and while I still love my work.
Knowing the dedication and capabilities of the library team, I am convinced that Brown library has a great future in store. No doubt an out- standing leader will be found as the new director. My best thanks go out to all the Friends of ACU Library for your support and encouragement through the years. I plan to remain an active member and hope to enjoy many more years of working with you. |

By Mark McCallon Assistant Library Director Wireless Network In the LibraryThe library has recently installed a wireless network that will allow students to use their laptop computers to access the university's computer network from anywhere in the library without the use of cables or plugs. Students can now surf the web or grab e-mail while walking about the library or eating lunch in the library atrium. Also, students can access the library's online catalog or electronic databases from the library book stacks or any of the study rooms. More information about accessing the library's wireless network using your personal laptop can be found at ACU's student computing page: http://team55.acu.edu/wireless/wireless_windows.html. |
The technology for the wireless network was paid for through a grant from the Texas Infrastructure Fund (TIF). The Texas Infrastructure Fund provides funding to libraries, public schools, higher education, and health care facilities for computer networks, distance education, video conferencing, and the TEXSHARE databases. To date, the library has received over $200,000 in grants from TIF. In addition to the wireless network, the library also received fifteen laptop computers for students and patrons to check out to use in the library building. The computers are "wireless-ready" with Internet access, e-mail, and word processing capabilities. The computers can be checked out at the library's circulation desk. |

By Dr. Lawrence Ray Smith ('58) FACUL Vice-President for Resources Floods and FiresThe summer of 2002 reminds many of us about the floods of Texas and the fires of the Northwestern and Western parts of the United States. Perhaps you have read about or experienced both natural phenomena.In our case, Nancy and I experienced the devastation of flood waters first. Two rivers in the area around Kerrville, Texas, ran out of their banks and rose to flood levels. People surrounding two dams were evacuated. It was feared one dam would break and the other had water going over the spillway with such force as to cause unprecedented flooding. The dam did not break but water rose above flood stage. In the rivers' wakes houses were destroyed and land submerged. In the city of Kerrville two creeks quickly turned into roaring rivers when their banks could no longer hold the seven to eight inches of rain in just a few hours. Again, houses were destroyed and land submerged. |
Later that week we drove out of town in a blinding rainstorm and twenty-four hours later we were in New Mexico where fire had taken its toll on the land. We rode up into a canyon on Philmont Scout Ranch and were awed at the result of a forest fire's ravage of 28,000 acres of the ranch. Tops of trees were green while from ground up you saw only burned trunks. The Ponil River had turned black from ash and soot. In this case the ranch's land was part of a 92,000 acre burn. Five lightening strikes had hit on various points of the property.
In the cases of both flood and fires we are first concerned and prayerful, then involved. Our involvement may be through cooking food, moving furniture, mopping mud and silt, etc. Or, it may be through our contributions and prayers. In some cases all three are parts of our lives. Prayers, service, and giving. Life's spiritual basics are not far from us in everything we do. That includes how we serve, work, play, - and educate. God's blessings on us all! |

By Marsha Harper ('59) Library Director Three Friendly Faces: Library Personalities (6)
Ruby Guy came to the library from the university's registrar's office in 1986 and soon learned the ropes in Technical Services, where she works at a variety of tasks. Despite working in the "back room" Ruby maintains a lively interest in the students. Sports are another strong interest; as a major fan of ACU sports teams, she seldom misses a game.
- And the students love her back. In 1994, she was chosen Grand Marshall of the Homecoming Parade. More recently a campus award, the "Unsung Servant Award," was established by a former student in honor of Ruby and her business office friend, Sammy Lale. She was a devoted wife to Leroy Guy, a disabled veteran who was hospitalized for 35 of their 50-years of marriage. She raised 4 children and rejoices in 6 grandchildren and 2 great-grandchildren. Through all her years of ups and downs caring for her husband and children, Ruby has maintained a radiant faith in God and a habit of ministry to everyone around her. One of her ministries is prayer; nothing is too large or small for her to lay before the Father. Another is encouragement. She constantly affirms people in word and in hug. One of our favorite parts of the day is when Ruby comes through the door saying, "This is the day the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!" It has been four years since Virginia Bailey joined the library faculty as Reference Librarian but most of us feel we have known her much longer. She has a way of reaching out to people - all people - that cuts through the tension often found near a busy reference desk. Virginia came to librarianship only after her four children were grown. She went to college in Oregon, then received her MLS from Louisiana State University, with special emphasis on services to patrons with disabilities. She has made use of her training here, campaigning for the acquisition of special equipment to serve the visually handicapped. Information she provided to grant writer Ann Hulett resulted in funding from the Ed Rachal Foundation for the hardware and software to enable blind and partially-sighted patrons to read (among other things) our online catalog and to print copies in large print or in Braille. With her mother in Arkansas and her children (not to mention 9 grandchildren) in Washington and Oregon, Virginia is constantly on the road or up in the air. When at home she enjoys reading. One might say she has another "hobby": befriending students |
who need financial or other assistance. There is always someone living with her or staying with her - or both. She has an especially tender heart for minorities and international students.
Her combination of library skills and down-home kindness make Virginia Bailey an effective and popular reference professional. Are you a student looking for information on, say, population changes in Puerto Rico over the past decade? Or the Supreme Court decision on prayer in schools? Maybe you and some friends want to see a map of Abilene in 1892. If so, you need to head for the Government Documents department and find Laura Baker. 
Now a seasoned veteran of seven years, Laura came to us fresh out of graduate library school at UT-Austin. She has raised the Documents department to a higher level of professionalism. In 2001 when we were up for an inspection by the government's Depository Library Service, Laura had so many achievements to report in her self-study that the inspector did not need to make a full inspection. He came by for a brief visit then sent her a letter of commendation. Laura excels in other ways as well. She plans and executes (with the help of other librarians) the teaching materials we use for University Seminar (for all freshmen and transfer students). She created and maintains a home page for Government Documents. She catalogs every item received by the depository; she also provided leadership for other documents librarians in Abilene Library Consortium to buy cataloging and authority processing from Marcive. Laura performs well as a teacher too, presenting information about relevant resources to classes in Political Science, Communications, Sociology, and the like. She is well prepared, smiling and friendly, and always has a stack of hand-outs. In addition to her ACU and City of Abilene patrons, Laura serves all interested constituents of the 17th Congressional District. This is a requirement for a Depository Library -- but Laura would probably do it anyway. In her leisure time she enjoys music and reading. We are thankful that Laura Baker, an Austin native but an ACU graduate, decided to return to her Alma Mater. |

Retreats Aid AdvancesIt is an August morning, sunny with a promise of high temperatures later, but the library staff is cool and comfortable. We are scattered around the grounds of Cedar Gap Farm in the wooded hills south of Abilene, on a retreat. We begin, per Mark McCallon's directions, with a 45-minute quiet time. Each of us has a list of scriptures for reading and meditation. Or we spend the time in silent prayer or simply enjoy the landscape, the bird songs, the peacefulness. Later we come together in the Bird House, a large one-room building with 3 glass walls, for a group devotional and an assortment of activities; professional, spiritual, and recreational. A special guest is Laura Packer, president of the local Audubon Society, who tells us about "The Birds of Taylor County"; another is Bible professor Randy Harris, who gives an encouraging message on being like Jesus. We leave after a catered lunch saying it was the best retreat we have ever had.-- And we have had a few. An early one was at the home of staff member Sara Spencer, another at the lakeside residence of Bob Gillette, ALC System Administrator. Some years we have used a Boy Scout camp (but that required taking our food with us. Not restful!). Once we "retreated" into our own building and used every floor - every nook, almost - to do some professional training, hear from guest speakers, and play games. The Grace Museum was our retreat setting one year; a tour of its art and historical exhibits was a major activity. Another August we drove to Albany to enjoy the very interesting "Old Jail Museum" with its eclectic collections of art and local |
history. That was the year we had a catered lunch that was far too dainty for the men. But English professor Dr. Steve Weathers read us one of his short stories and a favorite Bible professor and library supporter, Jim Mankin, gave a devotional talk - just months before his death. Another year we rounded up vans and took a field trip to the other Abilene libraries, where we were given tours and picked up ideas we could use; a Mexican food restaurant was our last stop. The following August saw us in Buffalo Gap touring the Historic Village and enjoying a backyard picnic and a program on Texas music (Joe Specht, McMurry Library Director, was the presenter). Last year we visited the National Center for Children's Illustrated Literature in downtown Abilene, heard from Wayne Barnard, Dean of Campus Life, on appropriate ways to help students; ate pizza with the devotional speaker, Mark Hamilton; and toured a quilt show at the Grace Museum. All were good days, good trips, and full of goodly portions of food for thought.
A great deal of planning goes into the retreats. We look for variety and for interesting speakers. Our goals are to provide cultural enrichment, intellectual stimulation and spiritual nourishment (all three, if possible). We also want to have good food and good fellowship. Getting out of the building and away from our daily routines is restful. We share interesting experiences and rub shoulders with different people. Staff morale rises. We come back better equipped to work as a team. The retreats we take together help energize us for the accomplishments you are reading about in these pages. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Staff Changes Call for AdjustmentsThe good news is we had fewer changes this past year. The bad news is the changes were more momentous. First, we lost Amy Stults, a cataloging whiz kid, when her husband took a job in Phoenix. Later in the year, two full-time staff members, Jimmie Coffey (Periodicals) and Dan Alexander (Circulation), asked to reduce their hours to half time in preparation for full retirement. Their requests preceded but dovetailed with the university's Strategic Restructuring initiative and helped us reach our assigned goal of a $15,000 reduction in personnel costs. Our further response to this challenge was to create a new category of Graduate (Student) Assistants to fill the hours our two semi-retired staff vacated and to fill a vacant half-time position in Cataloging. Dan has subsequently resigned to concentrate on remodeling his house and to draw full retirement. We have hired Beth Kellar to fill his now half-time position as a regular staff member.
|
Though all of us regret losing the two full-time and one half-time staff positions, we are grateful for the energies and strong work ethics of the graduate students we have been fortunate to find. They learn quickly and demonstrate a keen interest in the library as an institution as well as a work place.
 As for Amy's job, we were very fortunate to find Jackie Carroll, a December graduate of UT Austin to fill that critical position. An English major who came to us with aspirations to become a librarian, she has taken to cataloging like the proverbial duck to water.
Weathering technological change, which we must now do routinely, (see article on p.1) is made more difficult when personnel changes must also be accommodated. But with few exceptions we have found just the right kind of people to keep the work going. I'm beginning to believe that only good people are attracted to library jobs. So of course, the better the library (ahem), the better the applicants. We have been blessed. |

By Chad Longley ('04) Special Collections Administrative Assistant  Library GiftsThe operation of the ACU Library would not be possible without the thousands of books and monetary gifts given to the library each year. During the 2001-2002 fiscal year, the library received 11,226 cash and non-cash gifts, 121 of which were in memory or in honor of present and past alumni, friends, and family.List of 2001-2002 donors Many large donations were made to the acquisitions fund and the unrestricted library fund. In addition, two generous endowments were established: one by Mrs. Pauline Nelson, |
and the other in memory of Mrs. Mildred Ione Spain, the late widow of Dr. Carl Spain, professor of Bible at ACU from 1954 - 1989.
Significant gifts for the Center for Restoration Studies included historical records of the West Islip Church of Christ in New York, and papers of evangelists Lamar Plunkett and Forrest Waldrop. The ACU Library was chosen last spring to receive one of 110 official copies of Remnants of Change, a collection of lithographs by Ancel Nunn illustrating Texas. Other significant or interesting donations added this past year include: The Harvard Classics: Five-Foot Shelf of Books, 1914 edition; The Bible and Modern Science, video series by Dr. Lynn Mitchell; The Origins of Christendom in the West, edited by Alan Kreider; The Combat Myth in the Book of Revelation by Adela Yarbro Collins; and The Historical Christ and the Jesus of Faith, by C. Stephen Evans. |

Remnants of ChangeRemnants of Change: a Sketchbook of Texas, a limited edition of lithographs by Ancel E. Nunn, was presented to the ACU Library Milliken Collection by Reneta E. Nunn and her sons, Ancel Paul and Andrew Everett Nunn in memory of A.C. Greene.The 40 original hand-pulled lithographs were titled, signed, and numbered by the late artist in his Morning Town Studio in Palestine, Texas in 1988. The lithographs were printed on 100% Rag Mould-made paper bound in leather and encased in a handcrafted wooden chest. |
An ACU alum, Nunn spent several years of his life in Abilene and West Texas. His illustrations reflect his enduring love of his roots in this land. Remnants of Change includes a still windmill awaiting the gathering thunderheads; the Ft. Phantom Hill fireplace chimney sentinels as well as the post office at View, Texas, surrounded by acres of blowing grasses pushed by the bellowing rain clouds.
Dr. Samuel C. Woolvin of Corpus Christi reproduced the lithographs to accompany his poetry in Remnants of Change - Poems inspired by the Lithographs of Ancel E. Nunn. This limited edition book was given by Dr. Woolvin in memory of A.C. Greene to the ACU Library. |
