STAFF NEWS

Peter Harrington contributed an essay on War Artists to the recently published Encyclopedia of the Pacific War (New York, Garland, 2000) edited by Stanley Sadler. In addition, a chapter by him entitled "Pictorial Journalism and the Boer War: The London Illustrated Weeklies" appeared in The Boer War: Direction, Experience and Image (London, Frank Cass, 2000), edited by John Gooch.

"Never the twain shall meet? Collaboration between catalogers and reference librarians in the OCLC CORC project at Brown University", an article by Ann Caldwell, Dominique Coulombe, Ron Fark and Michael Jackson, was recently published in Vol. 4, nos. 1/2 (2001) of the Journal of Internet Cataloging. The entire issue of the journal was devoted to CORC (the Cooperative Online Resource Catalog).

Eric Shoafâs book, Collecting William S. Burroughs in Print has been published by Ratishna Books. Collectors of Burroughsâ works have cast about for years trying to find editions of his works, as well as his contributions to books and journals. The only bibliography of Burroughsâ works was published in 1978 and covered the years 1953 Ð 1973. Shoafâs new book covers 1953 to the present. It also includes many items from the earlier period which were not included in the bibliography by Maynard & Miles. Eric hopes that collectors and book dealers will benefit from information about "what is out there" and will be able to build their own collections of Burroughâs works more easily. He notes that often one needs to know what one is looking for in order to find it.
