I'm very pleased to announce that Casey Mullin will be assuming Margaret Lu's position as Head of Data Control on August 1st, 2012.

Casey brings a wealth of metadata experience that he has gained during his tenure in the Metadata Development Unit as our humanities cataloger and a strong, forward sense of direction as the Department quickly evolves to keep pace with the world around us. His contributions toward SearchWorks development, including Google analytics, give him a unique appreciation for data and its flow from creation through discovery.

With the Stanford Board of Trustees' approval to move the occupants of the Meyer Library, plans are underway to move the East Asia Library to the former GSB South building in Summer 2014. Renovation plans are being made that will make EAL materials and services more accessible and provide an environment conducive to research and collaboration.

Some highlights:
- individual and group study rooms
- seminar rooms with A/V capabilities
- faculty teaching space
- more study carrels and group study tables
- special collections reading room

More news of the move will be provided in this space as details become available.

Harvard University, The Rev. Claude L. Pickens, Jr. Collection on Muslims in China, includes Over 1000 photos of Muslims and Christian missionaries working among them in Western China in the 1920s and 1930s. The collection is supplemented by several hundred books, pamphlets, broadsides, etc., in several languages.

A selection of images from the Anderson photograph collection of the YWCA in China, 1920s-1940s, held by the Special Collection of the Stanford East Asia Library, has been digitized and is now available online.
