Inside Gustavus September 15, 2011 | Volume 44, Number 2

Faculty/Staff Activities

  • Julie Gilbert and Barbara Fister (Library) had an article published in the journal College & Research Libraries titled "Reading, Risk, and Reality: Undergraduates and Reading for Pleasure" which reports on a study of Gustavus students' attitudes toward voluntary reading conducted with the help of student Amara Berthelsen '10.
  • Julie Gilbert (Library) and Amy Gratz published "Meeting Student Needs at the Reference Desk" in Reference Services Review. The article was later selected as a feature article for September by Informed Librarian Online.
  • An essay by Darrell Jodock (Religion), "Carrying on the Muhlenberg Tradition and Mission," has been published in a new book from Eerdmans Publishing Co, Muhlenberg's Ministerium, Ben Franklin's Deism, and the Churches of the 21st Century: Reflections on the 250th Anniversary of the Oldest Lutheran Church Body in North America, edited by John Reumann. The "Muhlenberg" in question is Henry Melchior Muhlenberg, who came to Pennsylvania from Germany in 1741 and in 1748 organized a gathering of Lutheran clergy and laity. It was the first such gathering that grew into an organized synod and is one of the historical roots of the ELCA.
