Cindy Hepfer, leader of the Continuing Resources Cataloging Team of the University Libraries, is the recipient of the 2009 Ross Atkinson Lifetime Achievement Award presented by the American Library Association’s Association for Library Collections and Technical Services (ALCTS) and sponsored by EBSCO Information Services. The award citation, along with $3,000, will be presented to Hepfer at the ALA’s annual conference in Chicago in July. Hepfer is being recognized for excellence and commitment that has inspired a broad spectrum of constituencies—students, administrators, academicians, book jobbers and serials vendors, library support staff and librarians—to be active participants in the development of library services, standards and technical processes. She has served the ALCTS in a variety of areas, including program planning, publications and standards.

Dennis A. Andrejko, associate professor of architecture and an expert on energy-conscious architecture, has been elected to the College of Fellows of the American Institute of Architects (AIA). The honor is granted for contributions of national significance to the profession. Andrejko is one of only 112 architects elected to the college this year from across the United States, one of 10 from New York State and the only one from Western New York. The fellows will be invested at the 2009 AIA National Convention and Design Exposition in San Francisco in May.
