The following is the text of a resolution passed by the Preservation of
Library Materials Section of the American Library Association.

    Resolution of Thanks
    Honoring
    Walter A. Henry

    Whereas,    Walter A. Henry is a trailblazer in the field of
    conservation and preservation for initiating, developing, and
    moderating electronic services, and for his commitment to developing
    a dialogue between library conservators and the larger preservation
    community; and

    Whereas,    he established the Conservation DistList in 1987, the
    second oldest library-oriented list in the United States, as a
    moderated digest about conservation which serves as a forum for
    sharing technical information, news, and queries, and which has
    grown to include more than 850 subscribers from at least thirteen
    countries; and

    Whereas,    he developed Conservation OnLine, a collection of
    full-text databases covering a wide variety of conservation and
    preservation issues which utilizes Wide Area Information Server
    technology to provide quick access to information from anywhere on
    the Internet; now therefore be it

    Resolved,   That the Preservation of Library Materials Section of
    the Association for Library Collections and Technical Services does
    honor Walter A. Henry for the lasting contributions he has made to
    libraries and to conservation and preservation internationally; and
    be it

    Resolved,   That copies of this resolution be sent to the Director
    of the Stanford University Libraries and other appropriate places.

    Adopted by the Executive Committee of the Preservation of Library
    Materials Section of the Association for Library Collections and
    Technical Services on February 6, 1994.
