A Note from the Dean
It has been a lively Fall Quarter in the Libraries! UC’s record enrollment has resulted in
extra heavy use of all of our libraries and of our Web site. Langsam Library computers are
in constant demand and students can be found studying 24/7 in UCit@Langsam. Group
Study Rooms are full throughout the Libraries and it is rare to see an empty spot in the 90seat
computer lab in the Donald C. Harrison Health Sciences Library. Renovation of the new
space for the Albino Gorno Memorial Music (CCM) Library is proceeding on schedule with
expected completion late in December. The move from the 4th floor of Blegen Library to
the 6th floor will allow the CCM Library to operate in contiguous space rather than in two
separate wings as it does now. The centerpiece of the new CCM Library will be the handsome
Blegen Library Reading Room with tall windows, historic chandeliers, and wooden bookcases.
I invite you to sample our newest digital collection, Cooperative Engineer, which is featured in
this issue of Source. From its imaginative covers to its articles and photographs, Cooperative
Engineer offers a fascinating historical journey through the College of Engineering from 1921
to 1975 as seen through the eyes of its students and alumni.

“Freedom without Walls!”
Exhibits Commemorate the 20 th Anniversary of the Fall of the Berlin Wall
November 9, 2009, marked the 20 th anniversary of
the fall of the Berlin Wall. To commemorate this
important event, the Libraries created two exhibits for
display in Langsam Library through fall quarter.
“Freedom without Walls!: In Commemoration of
the Fall of the Berlin Wall, 1989-2009,” on display
on Langsam Library’s fourth floor lobby, features a
Berlin Wall timeline tracing the history of the Wall.
Spanning over 60 years, the timeline begins in 1945
at the end of World War II when the Allied Powers
(France, England, the United States, and the Soviet
Union) split Germany into four occupation zones,
and its capital, Berlin, into four sectors. Photographs
along the timeline show significant moments in the
life of the Berlin Wall, including its building in August
1961, President Kennedy’s 1963 “Ich bin ein Berliner!”
speech, President Reagan’s 1987 “Mr. Gorbachev, tear
down this wall!” speech, and the tearing down of the
Wall in 1989. The timeline ends in 2009 as the world
celebrates the 20 th anniversary of the fall of the Berlin
Wall.

The exhibit on Langsam Library’s fifth floor lobby
showcases library resources about the Berlin Wall. “Freedom without Walls!:
The Berlin Wall Remembered, 1989-2009,” displays books, movies, song,
and art that tell the story of the Berlin Wall and those who lived with it. A bibliography is available in print at the
exhibit and online at www.libraries.uc.edu/information/news/pressrelease/0910/berlinwallbibliography.pdf.
Created by Olga Hart, Instruction Librarian, Melissa Cox Norris, Director of Library Communications, and
Richard Schade, Professor of German Studies and Honorary Consul of the Federal Republic of Germany,
the exhibits take their inspiration from the “Freedom without Walls! Fall of the Berlin Wall 1989-2009”
celebrations organized by the Embassy of the Federal Republic of Germany, Washington. For more

University of Cincinnati authors representing the McMicken College of <strong>Art</strong>s and
Sciences (A&S), the College of Design, Architecture, <strong>Art</strong>, and Planning, (DAAP),
and the College of Medicine were among the authors at the festival. The UC
authors were:
James Braziel, Adjunct Assistant Professor of English & Comparative Literature
in A&S. Braziel is the author of Snakeskin Road, described as a woman’s
harrowing journey of survival along a passageway of terror and hope. Braziel’s
first novel, Birmingham 35 Miles, was included in the festival last year.
Joseph Clark, Professor of Neurology in the College of Medicine. Clark’s book,
My Ambulance Education: Life and Death on the Streets of the City, describes his
experience working to pay his way through college as an ambulance attendant on
the most dangerous streets of New York beginning at the age of 18.
Melissa Kramer, fourth-year journalism student. Kramer’s first book, The Inclines
of Cincinnati, was released last March. The book, part of Arcadia’s “Images of
Rail” series, examines a time when Cincinnati’s streetcars carried locals and
tourists to the peaks of Mount Adams, Mount Auburn, Clifton, and Price Hill,
and explores reasons for the disappearance of the city’s number one tourist
attraction, the Mt. Adams
incline. Read more about
Kramer’s research in “Ask a
Student” on page 5 of this issue

Ask A Student
What inspires someone to write and
publish a book? For Melissa Kramer,
fourth-year UC journalism student and
author of The Inclines of Cincinnati, it
was a photo of an historic incline that she
noticed in Price Hill Chili over ten years
ago. From that came the idea to write
about Cincinnati’s famous inclines.
In researching and writing her book,
published in 2009 by Arcadia Press, Kramer
tapped a wide range of resources and
expertise from the UC Libraries:
UC Students Talk about Their Library Experiences
By Pam Bach, Head of Langsam Library’s Info Commons,
pamela.bach@uc.edu
Materials: From the Sanborn Historic Map
collection Kramer found a map showing
the incline station and the Lookout House at the
top of Mount Auburn. Thus began her search for finding
any physical remains of the inclines around Cincinnati. This map collection was
produced by the Sanborn Fire Insurance Company and is available online through OhioLINK’s Digital Media Center at
http://dmc.ohiolink.edu/. The maps provide large scale street plans of Ohio from 1867 to 1970 and are frequently used by
researchers and historians.
Melissa Kramer in the DAAP Library
Technical equipment: Kramer’s book contains over 200 historic images of Cincinnati during the time when streetcars were the
primary mode of transportation. Kramer compiled these images from a variety of means and with help from the Libraries. From
the Circulation and Multimedia Services Department at the Walter C. Langsam Library, Kramer checked out a digital camera to
take photos of some of the remnants of the incline supporting structures that she discovered in various Cincinnati and Northern
Kentucky neighborhoods. At the Robert A. Deshon and Karl J. Schlachter Library for Design, Architecture, <strong>Art</strong>, and Planning
(DAAP), she used the scanners and large screen monitors for what she found was the most challenging part of her project, which
was to meet the necessary image resolution requirements of the publisher. At the Student Technology Resources Center, she
digitized a film from a personal collection showing the inclines and street cars that serviced the Clifton area.
Staff: Kramer tapped the expertise and knowledge of several library staff. During her internship at the Archives and Rare
Books (ARB) Library, Kevin Grace, University Archivist and Head of the ARB Library, suggested that she publish her research
with Arcadia Press. Tom White, Head of Acquisitions and Monographs, provided historic images from his personal collection.
Elizabeth Meyer, Visual Resources Librarian in the DAAP Library, assisted Kramer with the technical details of scanning images.
As Kramer’s experience in researching and writing her book shows, when you think of libraries, think expansively. For her, the
UC Libraries were a source of research and specialized collections; multimedia equipment such as digital cameras, camcorders
and scanners; and a knowledgeable staff to help identify resources, assist with the use of technology, and share the journey that
comes with research.
The Inclines of Cincinnati is available for check-out from UC Libraries or for purchase at local book stores and online at
amazon.com.

Cooperative Engineer Online
By Melissa Cox Norris, Director of Library Communications, melissa.norris@uc.edu
The Libraries have digitized Cooperative Engineer, a quarterly publication produced by students and alumni
of UC’s College of Engineering from 1921 to 1975.
Accessible via http://digitalprojects.libraries.uc.edu/cooperative_engineer, each scanned
issue of Cooperative Engineer can be viewed in its entirety. The issues are also searchable
by keyword and by phrase. In addition, viewers of the collection can browse by issue
cover.
Started in 1921 to “reflect [the readers’] common interest in the University and in the
industrial and commercial world with which they are brought in contact,” Cooperative
Engineer offers historical material on the College of Engineering, the UC campus, the
City of Cincinnati, and on world events. It chronicles the development of engineering
and industrial processes and provides insights into student life and social customs of
the time. <strong>Art</strong>icles describe many of the 20 th century’s major technical accomplishments
including advancements in aviation, space exploration, and the creation of the atom
bomb. <strong>Art</strong>icles on UC athletics and social events appeal to the reader’s lighter side.
Each cover of Cooperative Engineer is skillfully illustrated and numerous images and
photographs are included throughout the publication. Original copies of Cooperative
Engineer are housed in the Archives and Rare Books Library.
“Digitization of this excellent publication was made possible by Michael and Margaret
Vol. 17 No . 1
Valentine, long-time supporters of our Engineering Library,” said Victoria A.
Montavon, Dean and University Librarian. “We are also very appreciative of the work
of Dorothy Byers, former Head of the Engineering Library, in bringing this project to fruition.”

Libraries Awarded a LSTA Grant to Digitize
Cincinnati Birth and Death Records
@
E-NEWS YOUR LIBRARY
The Libraries were awarded a $140,437 Library Services and
Technology Act (LSTA) grant from the State Library of Ohio to
digitize the birth and death records of the City of Cincinnati from
1865 through 1908.
The 340,000 records will be scanned and made available online. The
scanning began in October 2009 with access to the records slated for
August 2010.
The birth and death records, which are part of the collections of
the Archives and Rare Books Library, are of great historical and
genealogical importance. Each birth record contains the name of
the individual along with birth date, race, gender, name and birthplace
of father and mother, occupation of father, doctor or midwife, and hospital. For
each death record the following information is available: name, age, date and cause of death,
address, occupation, race, gender, attending physician, funeral home, and place of burial.
The birth and death records are among the most heavily used materials in the Archives and Rare Books Library. In the last year,
the library received 3,000 requests for information from them, representing 75% of genealogy reference service provided to the
general public. “This scanning project will make an already valuable, much-used resource widely accessible to genealogists and
the general public, as well as to social historians, epidemiologists, and public health historians,” said Victoria A. Montavon, Dean
and University Librarian.
In addition to providing wider access to researchers in Ohio and around the world, digitizing the Cincinnati birth and death
records will also preserve the 340,000 index cards created several decades ago by the Cincinnati Health Department after the
original ledger volumes, also preserved in the Archives and Rare Books Library, became too fragile to handle.
The LSTA program is funded through the Institute of Museum and Library Services (IMLS) and administered through the State
Library of Ohio.

resources of the STRC. Never settling for “good enough,” if Jay
sets up a sound system, recorder, or camera, it will work properly
or he will fix it. Jay’s nominator described him as “a valued colleague
who has come to the rescue on numerous occasions.”
Cheryl Albrecht, Associate Dean of Library Services, was thanked by the visit
coordinator for her help in hosting the Commission’s Accreditation Team
when they visited UC in April 2009 and for showing “exceptional and welcoming hospitality.” Debbie
Tenofsky, Head of Reference and Information Services, and John Borntrager, Research Associate in the
Donald C. Harrison Health Sciences Library, coordinated the HLC Resource Room. Their work was cited
as “mission critical” and it was noted that “their expertise and work ethic were stamped clearly on the

Recent Library Acquisitions
By Mark Palkovic, Head of the Albino Gorno Memorial Music Library, mark.palkovic@uc.edu
New Special Collections Received by the Albino Gorno Memorial Music (CCM) Library...
Gorno Notebooks
The CCM Library received an interesting donation of notebooks about library namesake
Albino Gorno (1859-1944), written by one of his students, Mary Venable. Dr. Gorno was
a professor of piano and a highly-regarded accompanist who also served as Dean of the
College of Music of Cincinnati.
Born near Cremona, Italy, he was selected in 1881 by the prima donna opera singer Adelina
Patti to serve as her accompanist on a five-month tour of the United States. The following
year, he was engaged by the College of Music as principal of its piano department. Of the 62
years that he was a faculty member at the College, 40 were spent as its dean.
Gorno was eminently successful as a teacher of piano, as a pianist, and as a conductor. In
June 1924, Signor Gorno received the honorary degree of Doctor of Music from the College
of Music of Cincinnati. After his death, the Albino Gorno Memorial Music Library was
founded on May 31, 1949.
Mary Venable’s three-volume
notebooks, titled Studies with Gorno,
consist of a diary from 1896 to
1900 that includes remarks made
by Signor Gorno during her lessons
with him at the College of Music, a
diary of her hours spent practicing,
and an account of her graduation
examination and exercises.Volume
One is hand-written in ink. Volumes
Gorno Notebooks
Two and Three are typescript. All
three volumes include photos and
musical illustrations. Volume Three discusses Gorno’s method book, Material for the Study
of Pianoforte Pedals, published in 1900 by Willis Music Company in Cincinnati. Mary
Venable worked as Gorno’s secretary and editor (in her words, “critical amanuensis”) in the
preparation of his book.
After graduation, Ms. Venable accepted a piano teaching position at the Oxford College for
Young Ladies in Oxford, Ohio, remaining there for the academic year 1900-1901. She was
later on the faculty of the College of Music of Cincinnati. There is little more known about
her.
The notebooks were donated to the library by the Edendale Library Friends Society of the
Los Angeles Public Library system, which received them as an anonymous gift. Suzi Rogers,
volunteer for the Friends, found a reference to the Gorno Library at UC and contacted the
library. We are indebted to Ms. Rogers for the gift of this remarkable piece of local history
that somehow made its way across the country and is now home again.
The notebooks have been transferred to the holdings of the University Archives and are
available for consultation in the Archives and Rare Books Library, eighth floor of Blegen Library.
Accessioned as UA-09-30, they complement two other primary collections of Gorno material, the
Gorno Brothers Collection, UA-81-15, and the Albino Gorno Music Collection, UA-03-22.

While working with colleague
Melinda Boyd on the second
edition of her book, Women
in Music: A Research and
Information Guide, Karin
Pendle, UC Music Professor
Emerita of Musicology, relied
heavily on the resources and
services of the Albino Gorno
Memorial Music (CCM)
Library. “As so often in the past,
the CCM Library proved to be an invaluable resource—in fact, we could not have
accomplished our work without the assistance of Head of the CCM Library Mark
Palkovic and his staff, and the privilege of working in a library that included so much
information on women’s work in music,” Dr. Pendle said.
A library supporter and frequent patron of the CCM Library, Dr. Pendle recently wrote to
former students inviting them to consider making a gift to the CCM Library: “I am sure the CCM
Library has contributed greatly to your work, too. Maybe you remember the ‘light bulb’ moments that came
to you as you consulted library materials, or appreciated the chance to browse the latest periodicals, or listen to your favorite
performers in CCM’s growing CD collection. The library was there for you throughout your years at CCM, just as it was there for
us as we worked on our book.”
Frank and Karin Pendle
Dr. Pendle’s fundraising effort will assist in updating the furnishings and equipment for the CCM Library when it moves in
December from its current location on the fourth floor of Blegen Library to the sixth floor. Naming opportunities for significant
donations to the CCM Library include the public service desk area, the foyer, the reading room, and the library classroom.
To contribute to the CCM Library Improvement Fund or another library fund, please use the donation envelope enclosed in
Source or contact Margaret W. Wolf, CFRE, Director of Development, at (513)556-0055 or peggy.wolf@uc.edu.
As Dr. Pendle wrote: “contributions to the campaign will help renovate this attractive new library area for the benefit of CCM’s
current and future students and faculty.”
