Eugene P. Kennedy has been appointed as 
New York University’s dean of libraries. The 
dean will direct the operations of eight libraries 

at the six univer­
sity centers from of­
fices in the new El­
mer Holmes Bobst 
Library and Study 
Center on Washing­
ton Square South. 
The Bobst, which re­
cently opened, is one 
of the world’s largest 
open-stack libraries.

Mr. Kennedy brings 
to the position ex­
pertise and extensive 
experience in library 

Eugene P. Kennedy administration and 
technology. Since com­

ing to NYU two years ago as associate dean, he 
has assumed leadership in the planning and de­
velopment of the Bobst Library, where a com­
prehensive multimedia center will be developed 
in recognition of the increasing supply and de­
mand for nonbook learning resources.

His experience includes eight years in in­
formation sciences for several federal govern­
ment agencies. He was director of the Federal 
Aviation Agency’s information retrieval pro­
gram (FAIRS); then chief of the Systems De­
velopment and Coordination Staff of the E du­
cational Resources Information Center, U.S. 
Office of Education, where he was responsible 
for the design, development, and implementa­
tion of the Office of Education’s comprehensive 
information retrieval program. He also directed 
the Office of Education’s Library and Informa­
tion Sciences Research Program prior to joining 
St. Louis University as director of libraries in 
late 1968. He held that position until coming 
to New York University in 1971.

Mr. Kennedy is an alumnus of Villanova Uni­
versity, and of the Drexel Library School. He 
has done further graduate study in law, E n­
glish, and management technology at Temple 
and American Universities.

Patricia Anne Sacks, librarian at Cedar 
Crest College, has been named to the new po­
sition of director of Muhlenberg College and 
Cedar Crest libraries, Allentown, Pennsylvania. 
The establishment of a joint library administra­
tion program is one of a continuing series of 
steps in the development of interinstitutional 
cooperation between Muhlenberg and Cedar 
Crest.

Mrs. Sacks, who will direct the joint library 
operation, has the faculty rank of associate pro­
fessor at Cedar Crest and will hold the same 
rank as a member of the Muhlenberg faculty. 
She received the bachelor of arts degree in his­
tory and politics from Cedar Crest and the mas­
ter of arts in library science from Drexel Uni­
versity. She was appointed librarian at Cedar 
Crest’s Cressman Library in 1966, and her ser­
vice to the college has included membership on 
the long-range educational planning commit­
tee, which developed a new curriculum, and 
the advisory committee on fiscal planning.
