Cataloging Scientia and Bochner Lecture Series Videos

1.  SCIENTIA SCIENTIA LECTURE VIDEOS

Videocassettes DVDs of the Scientia lectures are typically sent to cataloging at or near the end of the semester, although they may arrive at any time.  Joan Reid – x5630 -- has been our contact for these tapes and for queries about them.
The point of contact is Ellen Butler at x4695.  Information about the lecture is online at http://www.ruf.rice.edu/~scientia/.\\^{Image Added}

The tapes are classed together in a history of science number and subarranged by the academic year, as each academic year a different question is explored.  The lectures arrive identified by speaker, title, and date.  The Scientia website displays a schedule useful for assigning numbers to the videos.  We need to be alert to the schedule:  sometimes one of the lecture tapes is not delivered with the others.    Joan Reid  Ellen Butler will locate the missing video.  The videos are classed together in a history of science number and subarranged by the academic year, as each academic year a different question is explored.
