Splendid Sets

Four recent publications in multiple volumes have come to the library recently through donations that highlight the various ways that Associates and others can aid the development of Lauinger's collections. The three-volume Field Day Anthology of Irish Writing came as the gift of Joseph P. Coleman, Jr., a recent Georgetown graduate, at the behest of The Wild Geese, an Irish-American cultural organization.

Kyocera/Diamond, Inc. presented its recently published eight-volume work on The Traditional Crafts of Japan, complete with accompanying videotapes.

Dr. John Esswein, a longtime Associate, gave 35 volumes published in the first edition series of the Franklin Mint, and he also contributed the funds to purchase the beautiful two-volume Random House set on the newly-restored Sistine Chapel.
