One of our own is being honored tonight. Leonora Gidlund, Director of the New York City Municipal Archives, is one of the seven who will receive the Sloan Public Service Award from the Fund for the City of New York. The award recognizes public servants who have rendered exceptional service to the public. It's great that an archivist is being recognized. For the full story, see the New York Times article (which includes a big photo of Leonora in the stacks) at: http://www.nytimes.com/2006/03/15/nyregion/15sloan.html?_r=1&pagewanted=all&oref=slogin (you will need to register to access it, but there's no cost) Congratulations, Leonora! -- Stephen E.
