[Web4lib] Purdue creates endowed chair in information literacy

[Sloan, Bernie]

A former Ford Motor Company executive has contributed $2.5 million to
Purdue University to establish an endowed chair in information literacy.
The chair will be named for the donor, W. Wayne Booker. Kind of
interesting that a library donor would be named "Booker". :-)
