In this season of Thanksgiving, we take a moment to appreciate one of the many special donors to our University Libraries and say thank you to all.
Carolyn Weill LeBauer, a 1936 graduate of Woman’s
College, cherished her alma mater. She
was a Greensboro native who contributed greatly to the community through her
association with civic, cultural and medical auxiliary activities over many
years. She died in March 2012, and we are pleased to announce that her
estate has now established the Carolyn Weill LeBauer Fund to support the book arts collection housed in the Special
Collections of Jackson Library at The University of North Carolina at Greensboro..
“This is an appropriate way to honor Carolyn’s memory and
interests,” says Dean Rosann Bazirjian of the University Libraries. “She was a member the Friends of the UNCG
Libraries for many years, and she and her husband Maurice gave a special volume
to the book arts collection back in 1975, one which remains one of the jewels of
our collection. We were and are grateful
for her support and interest in the University Libraries at UNCG.”
What was that "jewel" ? America wants to know !!
ReplyDeleteOn March 19, 1975, Dr. and Mrs. Maurice LeBauer donated to Special Collections as copy of Apocalypse Selon Saint Jean. Compose et dessine par Edy Legrand. Traduit de la Vulgate et du texte grec par Henri Boson, published in Casablancain 11942 by Editions de la Galerie Derche. The book has 27 full page plates printed in colors, and was mentioned in the FOL annual report that year.
DeleteA very interesting read indeed.
