[PADG:2100] Yale Law Books recovery

[Roberta Pilette <roberta.pilette@xxxxxxxx>]

Hi,
  The Yale libraries have gotten some good publicity out of the book
recovery efforts that were a result of the bombing at the Law School this
past spring.  
  Below are two urls showing the follow up done by local media on
the wet books from the law library bombing.  We ended up with three
TV stations, the New Haven Register and the local NPR station, WSHU doing
this story.  Earlier in July we had a nice interview with the other
NPR station WNPR.  For the most part reporters have gotten the facts
straight, though on occasion we've cringed at the errors that have crept
in or how things were edited.
