October Meeting Minutes
The meeting began at 3:36 p.m. on October 26,
2001 in room 313/14 of the UA Main Library. Members present included Carla
Smith, Catherine Dimenstein, Ann Eagan, Karen Holloway, Laura Bender,
Valorie Rice, Sheila Donnelly, Sheila Merrigan, Lori Critz, Jim Martin,
and one visitor.
Valorie Rice indicated that the notes from the last meeting were missing
a notation for Government Relations, for which there was no report.
It was moved to accept the minutes of the September 21st meeting as
corrected.
Executive Board Reports
President-Elect/Program Chair - Ann Eagan: The September 21st
meeting did not have the attendance that was expected (probably due
to the events of September 11th), but was a very useful program and
received favorable comments. Ann indicated that it was a learning experience
as only one of the three panel members was present in person - one joined
via phone and another joined via web conferencing. Upcoming programs
include a possible joint program with SCIP in January.
Treasurer - Lori Critz: There had not been a great deal of activity
since the September meeting, the current balance being $3560.18. There
was $257.22 worth of expenses since the last report (that being the
fall bulletin), and $140.00 worth of income from the September program.
Lori noted that the cost of the bulletin has increased a great deal
this last year. There was some discussion concerning saving costs by
identifying those who do not want to receive the bulletin in hard copy
or finding other (cheaper) printing options. Carla Smith will talk to
Dianne about this. Lori mentioned that she hopes to have $6000 saved
by the end of the year. We made $16 dollars today by offering an extra
raffle ticket to those who donated a dollar.
Secretary - Valorie Rice: No report.
Committee Reports
Affirmative Action/Diversity Leadership: Vacant
Bulletin Editor - Dianne Bean: No report
Bulletin Business Editor - Lisa Bradley: All advertisers and
potential advertisers were mailed the 2002 ad rates. Lisa also followed
up with phone contact at each vendor and made updates to contact information
in some cases. She expects vendors to be sending payments soon, though
she noted that some contacts stated they were working under tightened
budgets and would let her know their advertising status soon. She provided
a list of vendors that letters were sent to and asked that if anyone
has additions to the list to let her know. Beki noted that she had sent
Lisa several possibilities. The list is: OPAMP Technical Books, Inc.;
Majors Scientific Books, Inc.; Document Center; EBSCO Information Services;
TDI Library Services; Cambridge Scientific Abstracts; Schramm & Associates
- Kiplinger Forecasts; Information Handling Services; Iron Horse Multimedia,
Inc.; Infotrieve; Copyright Laws; Lexis-Nexis.
Career Guidance - Ann Eagan: Spoke with one person since last
meeting and that was to thank her, as the person got a job.
Chapter Archivist - Wes Rader: Nothing new has been added lately.
He sent Carla Smith information on the last anniversary celebration.
The archives are being well kept!
Employment - Betsy Lazan: In the last month, seven positions
have been posted on the discussion list, two for Arizona state library
and five for academic libraries. The positions ranged from entry-level
to deputy director, with four of the positions in Arizona. Volunteer
opportunities with the World Library Partnership were also posted on
the discussion list.
Government Relations - Cinda McClain: No report
International Relations - Pat Morris: No report
Membership - Sheila Donnelly: There are 104 members. This is
a decrease. Sheila has had a few requests for brochures from members,
and she still has a number of them. She brought a few to the meeting
today and will send some to anyone who asks. Sheila Merrigan suggested
that we have an SLA advertising/marketing type poster to hang in the
Library Student Organization's (LSO) office on the University of Arizona
campus. SLA does not have any posters to give chapters or even sell,
so Sheila Donnelly will look into having a few made, as well as having
a banner made for chapter events (which was a suggestion from Carla
Smith). SLA headquarters sent a electronic version on the membership
list, which she passed along to the networking chairpersons and to Beki
Welsch.
Networking, Northern AZ - Ann Eagan: No report.
Networking, Phoenix - Carla Smith: There were eight people at
the last dinner meeting, with another one planned for Tempe in November.
The first morning meeting was held at SRP.
Networking, Tucson - Jim Martin: There was a lunch meeting in
the beginning of October in which five people attended. He is looking
at having another event in early December. Jim's computer had crashed
a while back, so he lost his mailing list and had to reconstruct it.
He now has a copy of the membership list thanks to Sheila Donnelly.
Professional Development - Cathy Large: No report
Publications - Laura Bender: She indicated that some people
from the computer center (CCIT) have offered to help build a searchable
interface for the CD-ROM. There are 238-240 entries in the CD version.
She will meet with Jose on Monday to talk about the project. The keyword
searches that she has in mind now are personal name, city and subject.
She asked to group if there were any other suggestions for searchable
fields and suggestions were public vs. private or "open to public",
name of library or business, and every field. The projected date for
this would be December, and Laura asked if someone could make a CD label
that would be consistent with the previous edition.
Public Relations - Lori Critz: No report (Lori had to leave
the meeting early, before we got to this report.)
Strategic Planning - Carla Smith: Carla gave the latest updates
to the plan to Jack to post on the site.
Student Chapter Liaison - Sheila Merrigan: The student group
has toured the newly remodeled Special Collections at UA and met with
Roberta Shaffer this morning. There are two more tours scheduled, and
Nov. 6 is their next general meeting.
Webmaster - Jack Mount: No report - has posted our events on
the national calendar.
OLD BUSINESS
In regards to sending bulletins to neighboring chapters, it was decided
to send email notices to them or even to post to the leadership discussion
list.
Fundraising for the 25th anniversary celebration was considered. Carla
Smith has the folder from the last celebration, but there is no information
on the money spent. It was suggested that we should seek outside sources
for funding besides just doing raffles. Sheila Donnelly asked if there
was a committee formed for this, and there is not one yet and it was
suggested that she contact Laura Bender and Chris Vathis Howell about
how last celebration was organized.
In regards to the outreach discussion from last meeting, one person
replied that they would be willing to talk with high school students.
Ann Eagan suggested that we look into getting a video from headquarters
that we could use for outreach purposes. There was also a question raised
as to having someone to find out when career events are being held at
the schools.
The question was raised concerning another career fair in conjunction
with the library school in April. Lori Critz, who was on the planning
committee for this years fair indicated that it could happen - but only
if there is adequate help. She and Beki both stated that it was a large
undertaking. It would take several people, including at least one or
two local people to organize it.
NEW BUSINESS
There is a virtual seminar on Wednesday, December 5 entitled "Tempered
Radicals: Change Agency in the 21st Century Organization". Information
on the seminar can be found on the SLA website.

Library Tour - AMEC
Elyse Rukkila was the hostess for the November
15th meeting of the AZ SLA Phoenix Networking group. Elyse is the librarian
at the AMEC Earth & Environmental Sector Technical Library. AMEC is a
leading full-service earth and environmental consulting firm, providing
multi-disciplined solutions covering all aspects of environmental services,
materials testing and water resource services.
The AMEC library consists of two cozy rooms filled with a very interesting
and specialized collection. One room contains Elyse's desk and computer,
some files and a beautiful old card catalog. The other room is filled
to capacity with topographical maps, videos, environmental regulations,
proceedings of conferences, journals and books. The library contains
approximately 20,000 books and 116 journals.
Besides office space for employees, there are also two labs in the
building: a soils lab and an asphalt lab. Soil and asphalt samples are
brought in from all over the country to be analyzed. The library uses
the "askSam" database to search the collection. It is accessible by
all employees on their desktop computer via a shared drive. GEODEX is
the classification system used.
Elyse is currently working on creating a library webpage for the company
Intranet and is learning ColdFusion. Elyse is typically given a project
budget and a specific job number for each new request. She bills each
project for her time spent and is billed out at $60.00 an hour. Typical
questions Elyse can answer include: "Can you find an article about landslides
in Mohave County?" and "Is there a city code on utility depths?"
AMEC's most recent project is the Hoover Dam bypass. Engineers are
beginning the environmental impact and seismic studies. Elyse uses the
GEOREF database for research. GeoRef is produced by the American Geological
Institute and it covers the world's literature in geology and geosciences.
She also relies on information from state and local sources. Many thanks
for hostessing!
-- Carla
The library is located at 3232 West Virginia Avenue in Phoenix. Elyse
started working part-time in the library in 1996. She then went to work
elsewhere, but recently returned as the full-time librarian in March.
Elyse supports all the Earth & Environmental sector employees working
in North America.

PROSPECTING FOR ARIZONA'S MINING
LITERATURE
Jack D. Mount
|
Mining has been one of the leading industries
throughout Arizona's history -- the development and history of the State
is largely tied to the mineral discoveries, miners and mining companies.
Even the name of the State of Arizona refers to the "Arizona" or "Arizonac"
mining district active in colonial Spanish times and located in what is
now northern Sonora. Arizona continues to be one of the leading mining
states; in fact, 65% of America's copper comes from Arizona.
This article is a brief guide to publications currently available in
print which will help in identifying and researching Arizona's mining
activities and economic minerals. It may also serve as a "core list"
for information managers developing their collections.
Monographs
Geology of Arizona. By J. Dale Nations and Edmund Stump. Kendall/Hunt;
2nd edition, 1996. In textbook format, this well illustrated reference
is designed for the reader with no formal geologic training. One chapter
is devoted to mining and the origins of the ores.
Geologic Evolution of Arizona. By J. P. Jenney and S. J. Reynolds,
editors. Arizona Geological Society; 1989. This large volume is intended
to be a technical summary of current knowledge of Arizona's geology.
Many of the chapters are devoted to the geologic origins of the ore
deposits and mining activities.
History of Mining in Arizona. By J. Michael Canty and Michael
N. Greeley, editors. Mining Club of the Southwest Foundation, 1987-1999.
Now in three volumes, this reference is a well-illustrated and a fairly
comprehensive discussion of the topic.
There are a number of other monographs currently in print discussing
various aspects of Arizona's mining history. Some of the interesting
titles are: Arizona's Ghost Towns and Mining Camps: A Travel Guide
to History, by Philip Varney, 1998; Bisbee, Arizona Yesterday
& Today: A Comparative View of the Queen of the Copper Camps, by
Neil L. Bush, 1992; Holding the Line: Women in the Great Arizona

http://www.asmi.state.az.us/ . This site includes full-text of their
publications -- some of the titles are: Arizona Mining Fatalities:
1912-2000; Miner Details: Newsletter of Arizona State Mine Inspector's
Office; and their annual reports.
The Web site for the mining department at the University of Arizona
-- http://mge.arizona.edu/ --,
is a gateway for additional information.
The "Mineral and Energy Resources" page for the Arizona Geological
Survey -- http://www.azgs.state.az.us/minerals.htm
-- includes a map of economic minerals occurrences. The AGS' website,
http://www.azgs.state.az.us/
, includes a list of their available publications.
I have created four useful web pages for mining: "Mining and Economic
Minerals Resources" -
http://dizzy.library.arizona.edu/library/teams/set/mining/mining.html
