Forestry School to honor late librarian

Members of the School of Forestry and Environmental Studies (F&ES) will gather on Friday, April 30, to pay tribute to the late Joseph A. Miller, who was librarian and a lecturer at the school for more than 30 years.

The memorial will be held 3-5 p.m. in Marsh Botanical Garden, 277 Mansfield St. The ceremony will include remarks by F&ES officials, a tree dedication ceremony and the presentation of a posthumous award.

Miller, who died July 5 at age 64, helped transform the non-standard cataloguing systems devised by a former dean of the school into a more modern and universal system. He also helped integrate the F&ES library into the University-wide library system. As a lecturer at F&ES, he taught interdisciplinary courses in environmental history, society and energy systems, and forest mythology.

Memorial contributions in his honor may be sent to the United Way of Greater New Haven, 71 Orange St., New Haven, CT 06511.
