The Library as Publisher<\/strong><\/p>\n Lever Press:<\/strong>\u00a0 Did you know that the Collins Library is one of the founding members of the Lever Press<\/a>?\u00a0 The Press arises out of an initiative of the Oberlin Group to study how the libraries of liberal arts colleges could offer a new and compelling alternative to authors of scholarly works for a way of publishing their work. While Puget Sound is not a member of the Oberlin Group, we recognized the importance of this new initiative and joined the founding members. The core values of the Press align well with Puget Sound:\u00a0 to support interdisciplinary learning and teaching and student\/faculty partnerships.\u00a0 Lever is a fully open access press: all works will be freely available to readers on the web immediately upon publication.\u00a0 Unconstrained by legacy publishing processes and leveraging the opportunities for reuse facilitated by an open-access business model, Lever Press will welcome projects of digital scholarship not well served by scholarly conventions limited to print-only outcomes.<\/p>\n It is with pleasure that I can announce that Puget Sound\u2019s own Professor Brett Rogers has joined the editorial board of the Press.\u00a0 This is a great opportunity for our university and I know that his expertise and scholarship will help promote the Press.<\/p>\n Download the latest catalog here:\u00a0 https:\/\/www.leverpress.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/10\/LeverPress-Catalog-web.pdf<\/a><\/p>\n Yearbooks Online<\/strong>:\u00a0 The Collins Library is pleased to announce that the\u00a0University yearbooks are now available online<\/a>\u00a0and open freely to the public through the Historical Publications section of\u00a0Sound Ideas<\/em>, our institutional repository.\u00a0\u00a0Klahowya<\/em>\u00a0was the first yearbook published for the University of Puget Sound in 1913 and only had one volume. The yearbook resumed publication in 1920 under the title\u00a0Tamanawas<\/em>, and\u00a0published annually until 2016. It has kept this title through various changes in the name of our institution: College of Puget Sound, 1914-1960; University of Puget Sound, 1960-present.\u00a0 The yearbooks provide a glimpse into the academic and social life of Puget Sound. The Yearbooks complement existing collections such as\u00a0A Sound Past<\/em>, our historical photo collection<\/a>\u00a0as well as Puget Sound\u2019s student newspaper,\u00a0The Trail<\/em><\/a>.\u00a0 These resources not only provide alumni with the opportunity to celebrate and reminisce about their years at Puget Sound, but also provide our community with an important portal to our institutional history.\u00a0 According to Archivist & Special Collections Librarian, Adriana Flores, \u201cProviding access to the yearbooks online will enable our community to view our history in a whole new way. These primary historical documents teach us about the students who attended Puget Sound and what was important to them.\u201d<\/p>\n The yearbooks provide a unique student perspective and will also serve as an important resource for research projects as we continue to explore the history of our university and look at changing cultural trends, attitudes and programs.<\/p>\n Online Journals Published by Puget Sound: Sound Ideas:<\/strong> ___________________________________________________________<\/p>\n Sound Ideas<\/strong> had 11137<\/strong> full-text downloads and 84<\/strong> new submissions were posted, bringing the total works in the repository to 7403<\/strong>.
