Two Libraries
Receive Collection of Noted Co-operator |
| |
When
Ingalill Saxena contacted the BC Institute for Co-operative
Studies to ask its director, Ian
MacPherson, if the Institute would be interested in acquiring
the collection of books and papers of her late husband, Dr.
Suren K. Saxena, MacPherson was elated by her offer and over
the next few months ironed out the details with UVic; in late
2000 he was able to confirm with Mrs. Saxena that BCICS in
partnership with the University of Victoria would offer a
secure home for Dr. Saxena's books and papers. [Full

Four
More Years !!! |
| |
BCICS, now just over a year old, has made
a very good beginning. Twenty research projects have been,
or are nearing completion; our list of published research
is growing quickly; nearly thirty students, most of them involved
in graduate studies, have received training as they have worked
within the Institute, six of them from the Faculty of Law,
meaning that they will have a heightened understanding of
co-operatives as they pursue their careers. [Full
