Book Description
WESS History: "Librarians with an interest in Western Europe first met informally beginning in 1973, forming a discussion group, WELS (Western European Language Specialists), within ACRL in 1975 and met officially at the ALA mid-winter conference on January 21, 1975. The first issue of the WELS Newsletter appeared in 1975, continuing on an irregular basis until volume III, no. 1 in January, 1980 after which time it has appeared more regularly, semi-annually to the present. -- After five years as a discussion group, WELS applied to ACRL for section status, and the new Western European Specialists Section was officially approved on June 27, 1979. Membership in WESS has remained relatively steady, having grown from 560 in 1980 to 724 in 1997 and back to around 600 in 2009. The number of personal members has grown steadily while organizational membership has declined. -- According to its bylaws, first adopted in 1980 (see: C&RL News, November, 1979, pp. 322-23) and revised in 1985 (see: C&RL News, March, 1985, pp. 116-18), WESS "represents librarians and others in the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL) who specialize or are otherwise professionally involved in the acquisition, organization, and use of information sources originating in or relating to Western European countries."--WESS has organized programs at ALA annual conferences since 1980. In 1983, WESS members were heavily involved in the "Symposium on Western European Studies and North American Libraries," sponsored by the University of Minnesota. In 1988, WESS organized its first full-scale international conference, held in Florence on "Shared Resources, Shared Responsibilities: Libraries and Western European Studies in North America and Europe." Selected papers from both conferences have been published by Haworth Press in its journal, "Collection Management" (vol. 6, no.1/2, 1984) and as separate monographs. -- In 2004, an international conference was held in Paris on "Migrations in Society, Culture and the Library." Proceedings were published by ALA."--Past WESS Conferences: http://wess.lib.byu.edu/index.php/Past_WESS_Conference_Programs . -- WESS Newsletter: "The Web edition of the WESS Newsletter reproduces and in some cases expands the text of the printed version. Some formatting is changed to reflect the different nature of electronic publication, and hyperlinks are added where appropriate."

Book Description
A visual adventure of Wes Anderson proportions, authorized by the legendary filmmaker himself: stunning photographs of real-life places that seem plucked from the just-so world of his films, presented with fascinating human stories behind each façade. Accidentally Wes Anderson began as a personal travel bucket list, a catalog of visually striking and historically unique destinations that capture the imagined worlds of Wes Anderson. Now, inspired by a community of more than one million Adventurers, Accidentally Wes Anderson tells the stories behind more than 200 of the most beautiful, idiosyncratic, and interesting places on Earth. This book, authorized by Wes Anderson himself, travels to every continent and into your own backyard to identify quirky landmarks and undiscovered gems: places you may have passed by, some you always wanted to explore, and many you never knew existed. Fueled by a vision for distinctive design, stunning photography, and unexpected narratives, Accidentally Wes Anderson is a passport to inspiration and adventure. Perfect for modern travelers and fans of Wes Anderson's distinctive aesthetic, this is an invitation to look at your world through a different lens.

Book Description
Guided by the thesis that literature can transform social reality, Tirana Modern draws on ethnographic and historical material to examine the public culture of reading in modern Albania. As its starting point, this book asks: How has Albanian literature and literary translation shaped social action during the longue durée of Albanian modernity? Drawing on material collected through fieldwork with a community of readers, writers, and translators attached to the independent Albanian publisher Pika pa sipërfaqe (Point without Surface), Tirana Modern provides a tightly focused ethnography of literary culture in Albania that brings into relief the more general dialectic between social imagination and social reality as mediated by reading and literature.
