Information About

Norman Stevens




In 1956, Stevens and Francis A.T. Johns founded The '', '' Library Quarterly '', '' Library Journal '', and '' American Libraries ''.

Stevens has published a large body of writings on library topics for the edification and amusement of his profession. He divides his publications into two groups: those written as a director of libraries and those written as the director of The Molesworth Institute. A library historian as well as humorist, Stevens is a major force toward keeping alive the works of Edmund Lester Pearson , Sam Walter Foss , William Fitch Smyth , and others. He has donated his large collection of library humor items to the Dodd Research Center at the University of Connecticut. His Edmund Lester Pearson Library Humor Award has rewarded and encouraged a new generation of library humorists.
