About
the Program
In celebration of the bond between the written word and the achievement
of scholars, the UCSC Libraries and the Jack Baskin School of Engineering
are proud to sponsor the Honored Faculty, Honored Books Program.
This new joint initiative recognizes the achievements of faculty
in the school who have attained tenure and/or promotion. The occasion
is marked by the celebration of both the scholar and a book they
select as having most influenced them as a scientist and educator.
The faculty and their selected books are celebrated with a gala
reception held in the Science Library. The honored book is added
to the library collection and inscribed with a personalized bookplate
in their honor. This commemorative web site showcases the titles
that the faculty selected along with their description of the significance
of the book to their lives and careers.
