New Head of NYU's Tamiment Library & Robert Wagner Labor Archives



New York University Libraries take great pleasure in announcing the
appointment of Dr. Michael Nash as Head of the Tamiment Library and the
Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives. Dr. Nash will join our staff on September
3, 2002.

Dr. Nash holds a doctorate in American Labor History from the State
University of New York at Binghamton. Since 1991, he has been Chief Curator
at the Hagley Library in Wilmington, Delaware. During that time, he built a
reputation across the country as a public service librarian of extraordinary
talent and intelligence, working to make his library a resource for scholars
and an active sponsor of scholarly discussion. He is firmly committed to
bringing that same exceptional level of service to the Tamiment Library and
to making it the vital center of scholarship that its extraordinary
collections merit.

For all of us at New York University and the Division of Libraries, Dr. Nash
?s appointment represents our ongoing dedication to the Tamiment Library and
Robert F. Wagner Labor Archives. In that spirit, he hopes to work closely
with archivists, librarians and scholars at NYU and around the nation and
the world, looking for new ways to document the history of labor and
radicalism and to disseminate that vibrant history to scholars, students,
and future generations. As we look to the future, we are excited by the
challenges and opportunities that lie ahead.
