The Terman Engineering Library has two new faces who would love to meet you! Digital Services and Projects Librarian Alexandra Krogman, who joined Stanford Libraries November 26, 2018, and Data and Collections Librarian Linnea Shieh (’05), who joined us on February 04, 2019.
We are pleased to announce that Presley Hubschmitt has joined our team as Processing Archivist! First up for Presley will be tackling collections held at our Newark facility.
Presley joins us from the Napa County Historical Society, where she has served as Research Librarian since 2017. She holds a BA in History from UC-Berkeley and a MLIS from San Jose State. She and her husband Matt live in Richmond with their dogs Ophelia and Loki. Please join us in welcoming her to the department.

View the full list of Asian studies-related titles here.
Staff at the Archive of Recorded Sound have, for the first time, created a complete inventory of the ARS Sheet Music Collection. This culmination of over 13,000 published titles was generated through various donations during the Archive's first 60 years (1958-2018). The vast majority of titles within the collection are popular music scores published in the United States along with publications from England, France, Italy, and elsewhere.
On Monday, Feb. 4, University IT (UIT) upgraded Lynda.com to LinkedIn Learning. LinkedIn Learning, which acquired Lynda.com, has the same great content but provides an even more personalized experience. And, it’s still free to you!
Now that the upgrade is complete, you will no longer be able to access Lynda.com — instead you will be redirected to LinkedIn Learning. Don’t worry, all your learning activity and history from Lynda.com was seamlessly transferred to LinkedIn Learning.

It is a truth universally acknowledged that not all books find their reader. This February we invite you to come look at some of our "wallflower" books. They tell a great story and deserve some book love. Who knows you might find "the one" that makes your readerly heart swell.
