Moderator of a roundtable panel was James Holly, Macalester College. There were dis­ cussions by Richard White on federal grants applications, Raymond Bohling on the ALA Standards for Junior College Libraries, Donald Wujcik on state purchasing procedures and bidding procedures on periodicals, Mr. Holly on centralization of certain common procedures, and Bill Price on audio-visual services. The Minnesota State Junior Faculty Association Librarians Section has gone on record as en­ dorsing the ALA Standards for Junior College Libraries, and has recommended that the State Junior College Board acknowledge, support, and implement these Standards. ■ ■ DIX HONORED William ix was awarded an honorary Doctor of Laws de­ gree by the University of Florida on April 23. The citation of his service read in part as follows: Dr. Dix has been chosen repeatedly by his colleagues in the Association of Research Libraries for positions of leadership. Most recently, he served as chairman of the com­ mittee which planned and enlisted the co­ operation of research libraries in this coun­ try and Europe in establishing national cen­ ters for world-wide acquisition and catalog­ ing of research materials. As a result of his efforts, the Library of Congress will hence forth serve the libraries of the United States in the acquisition and cataloging not only of American library materials but of ma­ terials from the entire world. It would be difficult to over–emphasize the importance of his achievement as an aid to scholarly re­ search and in savings in cost to the cooperat­ ing libraries. We owe a debt of gratitude to the librarians of these libraries, and es­ pecially of the Library of Congress, for this collaborative effort, but the guiding mind and spirit has been that of William Shep­ herd Dix.
