Library receives Mellon grant

We’ve just announced that the UCLA Library received a $750,000 grant from the Mellon Foundation to catalog some 55,000 rare books. Needless to say, we’re thrilled, and I hope the students and scholars who will soon have access to the records of these rare and unique volumes will be as well. Details are in the press release in the UCLA Newsroom.
