University Honors Laura Fuderer

This year's recipient of the Reverend Paul J. Foik Award for significant contributions by library faculty has a long record of service to the university with achievements in the three categories of acquisitions, service, and scholarship. She has been instrumental in building Notre Dame's reputation as a major resource for scholars through her work in acquisitions, drafting collection development proposals, and supporting special faculty initiatives. As a subject librarian for French she has assisted the department for many years, and her efficiency in obtaining materials as well as her collaborative skills has been truly exceptional. As Rare Book Librarian she has made presentations of the library resources to students, faculty, and visitors. She is a scholar in her own right with her research on 18th-century women publishers. Indicative of her reputation is the fact that this individual received eight recommendations for this nomination. Because of the valuable service she provides to faculty and students, scholars, and the community, we honor Laura Fuderer.
