Elaine Franco, member CLA TSIG Steering Committee From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Keri Cascio Sent: Monday, August 31, 2015 8:57 AM To: [email protected] Subject: [ALCTScentral] Cataloging student scholarship at SJSU Hello, all, Ruth Elder shared this with me this morning, and I thought I'd share with the list. San Jose State University created a scholarship last year in the name of Bob Ellett for cataloging students. Bob's sharing nature and generosity affected many of our careers, and this seems like a fitting tribute. Here's the link to the news release about the creation of the scholarship: http://ischool.sjsu.edu/about/news/detail/new-scholarship-mlis-students-crea ted-honor-dr-robert-ellett.
