and director of the Norman Mayer Li­
brary, Graduate School of Business Ad­
ministration, Tulane University, New 
Orleans, LA 70118, is conducting a na­
tional survey among academic business 
librarians to determine faculty status, 
characteristics of publication, and other 
data. All authors who have not sent in 
their list of publications to Professor Ca­
sellas are urged to do so in order that 
general trends can be observed and char­
acteristics noted. A search has been made 
in NUC and in L L  for titles published 
by academic business librarians, but the 
list is far from complete. Your coopera­
tion would be much appreciated.
