Of course, I’m a skeptic. However, this theory gained a bit of validation for me when I received the latest issue of College & Research Libraries News in the mail yesterday. On the cover is a nice photo of Ray English, Azariah Smith Root Director of Libraries at Oberlin College, Oberlin, Ohio. English was on the cover because he was named this year’s Academic/Research Librarian of the Year by the Association of College and Research Libraries (ACRL). I have never met the man but when I first saw the cover photo of him, I could swear it was Marty Runkle, formerly library director at The University of Chicago Library, whom I have met. (I worked at The University of Chicago Library for several years under his leadership.) They certainly look alike! Weird. I wonder if they know each other or are aware of the resemblance? See for yourself. Take a look at the photo here of Marty Runkle and the cover C&RL cover photo of Ray English here.
