Progress has been made in organizing the Archives collections and a history of Westminster College has been published. A new library building is being built on the UNLV campus with a competition date of June 2000. They have added 15 new professional staff, and 11 classified positions are planned. A new musical library is also being built at this time. The governor has created the Millennium Scholarship.
Growth is a real challenge.
There are 30,000 actual bodies and a FTE of over 17000 students. They have 8 librarians and three campuses, with a new computer center at the Cheyenne Campus. The Cheyenne Campus has a reference collection with the main campus having the book collection. They are exploring the use of telephone access to Reference Staff and a CU-CME option for communication between campuses. Growth in the student population is a main concern.
