PROFILES

Richard W. Boss, former associate director 
of libraries at the University of Utah, has re­
placed Mr. William H. Jesse as Director of Li­
braries at th e University of Tennessee, Knox­
ville. Mr. Jesse died suddenly on July 1, 1970.

Mr. Boss had extensive experience in long- 
range planning at the University of Utah, 
which should stand him in good stead at Ten­
nessee. At the University of Utah he partici­
pated in the planning and construction of a 
new library and established the technical ser­
vices division as a separate organizational en­
tity. One of the features of this building is the 
dial-access information retrieval system. In 
Utah he actively worked with professional as­
sociations, serving on the ACRL Committee on 
Library Surveys in 1967 and the Statistic Co­
ordinating Committee in 1969, among others. 
He also served as President of the Bibliographic 
Center for Research a t Denver in 1970.

He holds a B.A. in political science from the 
University of Utah and an M.A. in library sci­
ence from the University of Washington, where 
he is a doctoral candidate; he also held a Coun­
cil on Library Resources Fellowship for 1970.

In his own words, he finds himself at an in­
stitution with a “strong library orientation” on 
the part of faculty and administration and a 
staff that is “outstanding in its commitment.”

On September 1, 1970, Mrs. Glenora E d­
wards Rossell became director of the Hillman 
Library system at the University of Pittsburgh, 
replacing Dr. C. W al­
ter Stone. Mrs. Ros­
sell’s background is 
exceptionally well bal­
anced for the diverse 
administrative prob­
lems offered by her 
new  position. She has 
previously served as 
the assistant director, 
technical services and 
administrative plan­
ning; assistant direc­
tor, humanities and 
social sciences; and 
acting director from 

Mrs. RossellJanuary to June of 
1970. I t was during 
her appointment as acting director th at the 
university senate approved faculty status for li­
brarians.

Mrs. Rossell has an M.L.S. from Columbia 
and has done further graduate work at Pitts­
burgh. She has also taught library science 
courses at both Pittsburgh and Carnegie Insti­
tute of Technology Schools of Library Science.
