Mike Nash, the Head of the Tamiment Library, passed away

I am deeply saddened to tell you that that Mike Nash, the Head of the Tamiment Library, passed away Tuesday evening (July 24). This comes at the end of long and difficult illness, at a time when he seemed to be near fully recovered. Many of us spoke with him only yesterday and found him optimistic, full of plans, and counting the days until he could get back to the Tamiment Library and his colleagues. This is tragic news; we lose a friend and colleague whose contributions to the libraries, the university, and to scholarship are too numerous to count.
