The release states, "Almost half of the increase results from a 21,000-volume build-up of the Huntsville stock." It also includes details about other system libraries.
The newsletter includes the outline of "a plan adopted by the University of Alabama to further develop instructional, research and service programs of the present Huntsville operations as integral parts of the University." The first point of the plan notes, "Effective September 1, 1966, the Huntsville operations of the University of Alabama shall be designated the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH)." The plan is signed by Frank A. Rose, president of the University of Alabama.
The program includes a short history of the Research Institute and a program of events, featuring remarks from Rudolf Hermann, Wernher von Braun, and Alabama Governor John Patterson. The back page shows a map of Huntsville with directions from the Huntsville Armory to the Research Institute.
This flier advertises a trip to Maine for UAH hockey fans to see "the Chargers capture the top-ranked Black Bears of the University of Maine." Tours of Maine scenery and sites, a "New England Style Dinner," lodging, and transportation are offered in the package.
