Other Service Activities
| April 2003 |
I am in the process of contacting UNCG Library about a project
that relates to the Department's efforts to become a Center for Contemporary
Poetry. Colombian poet and Professor Emeritus Dr. Ramiro Lagos has agreed
to donate his extensive poetry collection to the Jackson Library. I would
like for Dr. Lagos' donation to serve as the foundation for a Special Collection
on Hispanic Contemporary Poetry. I am also requesting donations from the
poets that attended our recent International Poetry Symposium. It is my
hope that UNCG may have a very unusual collection on the production of contemporary
Hispanic poets.
