Memorial Book Project

In recognition of professional achievement and years of service to SUNY Oswego, the Emeriti Association purchases memorial books in the names of emeriti librarians, faculty and non-teaching professionals who taught in an academic department or the Campus School.

Each book is housed in Penfield Library and carries a bookplate with the name of the deceased member. Books purchased in the individual's discipline, are selected by Penfield's librarian staff. The list of honored emeriti and the memorial books may be found by clicking on the title below.
