Mrs. Magavero: A History Based on the Life of an Academic Librarian - Paperback
Description
by Jane Brodsky Fitzpatrick (Author), J. B. Fitzpatrick (Author), S. Searing (Preface by)
Filomena Magavero was an academic librarian at SUNY Maritime College in the Bronx, New York, where she contended with a level of sexism that defined professional life for female librarians in the mid 20th century. This book is the story of an "everywoman" of academic libraries and a library history from the perspective of a woman in her position at the time. Included are a very useful literature review on women in mid-20th century librarianship and an oral history interview with Mrs. Magavero.
