The Lineup Represented at Queens College/CUNY

Prof. Ken Rosenberg, Acquisitions Librarian at Queens College's Benjamin S. Rosenthal Library, today accepted my donation of one copy each of The Lineup 1, 2, and 3. They should reach him by next week.

Incidentally, the search is on for the next Poet Laureate of Queens.

Hail! Hail to Michigan!

Lineup 3 contributor David S. Pointer sent word yesterday that the University of Michigan Special Collections Library accepted his donation of Issue 3.

Today Turtle Lake, Tomorrow The World.

A reader in Turtle Lake, Wisconsin donated a copy of The Lineup 3 to the Turtle Lake Public Library, and the library has asked for a copy of Issue 2, and Issue 4 in advance.

The Lineup and the Library of Congress

I received word today that two copies of each issue of The Lineup will be held at the Library of Congress.

ISSN 1945-7510

The Lineup received its ISSN yesterday, its unique identifier at the Library of Congress. The number will appear in newly printed copies of Issue 1 and any future issues we put together. For me, it has significance on par with NCC-1701. Live long, prosper, and buy a copy.
