Hasegawa-Johnson, a professor of electrical and computer engineering, and his wife, Yu Hasegawa-Johnson, a visiting scholar at the Beckman Institute, examine a book that was chosen for book plating by faculty member Randy McCarthy, mathematics. Mark Hasegawa-Johnson and McCarthy were two of the newly promoted or tenured faculty members honored during a reception and book plating on Nov. 8 at Grainger Engineering Library. The 80 faculty members who participated selected either extant volumes or new additions to the university’s collections for embossing with commemorative bookplates in their honor. This was the sixth year for the event, which added 48 books to the university’s holdings and was sponsored by Interim Provost and Vice Chancellor for Academic Affairs Jesse Delia and University Librarian Paula Kaufman.
