---------- Forwarded message ----------

It is with great sadness that I share that Dr. Jerry D. Saye, our friend, 
colleague and former faculty member at the School of Information and 
Library Science at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, passed 
away at his home yesterday, June 7, 2012.

Jerry was an exceptional teacher, winning the School's Outstanding 
Teaching Award twice, once in 1998 and again in 2005, as well as the 
Association for Library and Information Science Education (ALISE) Award 
for Teaching Excellence in 2002. He was the recipient of the University of 
North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Distinguished Teaching Award for Post 
Baccalaureate Instruction in 1999 and became a member of the Academy of 
Distinguished Teaching Scholars in 2000. In 2009, he received the Lifetime 
Teaching Award, a special award presented by SILS for exceptional 
teaching.

His primary subject areas included cataloging and classification, history 
of the book, library history and metadata. Jerry authored, "Manheimer and 
Saye's Cataloging and Classification," 5th edition. New York: Marcel 
Dekker, and from 1997 to 2002, he edited with Dr. Evelyn Daniel, the 
annual "Library and Information Science Education Statistical Report." He 
published many papers, articles and reports, and presented broadly 
primarily on subjects related to cataloging. In addition, he conducted 
many workshops on subjects for which he had great passion to help educate 
colleagues and students. He was devoted to his teaching, but he was also a 
devoted leader at SILS. In 1990, he was appointed assistant dean and in 
1994, he was promoted to associate dean of the school.

Jerry became involved with the country of Slovenia when he advised SILS 
doctoral student Alenka ?auperl (Ph.D. '99), a SILS alumna and now a 
professor in the Department of Library and Information Science at the 
University of Ljubljana. In 2003, he received the prestigious title of 
Senior Fulbright Scholar to Slovenia, which deepened his affection for 
this area of the world. His connections there resulted in a long-standing 
exchange program between SILS and the University of Ljubljana, and a 
summer seminar that was in place at SILS for several years. In November of 
2011, he was presented with the "Pro universitate labacensis" award "for 
special merit for advancing the development of the University of 
Ljubljana."

Jerry received his Ph.D. and Master's degrees in Library Science from the 
University of Pittsburgh. He was inducted into the Beta Phi Mu 
(International Honor Society in Library Science) in 1971.

He had been an active member in several professional groups including: 
Zveza Bibliotekarskih Dru?tev Slovenije. Dru?tva Ljubljana.  [Union of 
Associations of Slovene Librarians. Ljubljana Association]; Society for 
Slovene Studies; the American Library Association; American Society for 
Information Science and Technology; Association for Library and 
Information Science Education; and the Association for Library Collections 
and Technical Services.

In addition to a stellar academic career, Jerry served with the Pacific 
Fleet of the United States Navy. He spent part of his time at the Pearl 
Harbor Naval Base Library as a Library Technical Assistant. He later 
rejoined the U.S. Naval Reserves and retired as a Lt. Commander with 27 
years of service.

Our deepest condolences to Jerry's wife Terri Orsini Saye, his sisters, 
Sandra (Bob) Kord and Debra (Jan) Grunewald, mother and father-in-law Tony 
and Mary Louise Orsini and his nieces, nephews who he leaves behind.

A celebration of Jerry's life will be held later this fall to honor the 
lifetime of teaching and leadership he gave to SILS on the University of 
North Carolina at Chapel Hill campus. A Web page where you may wish to 
leave your favorite memory of Jerry Saye is available at: 
http://sils.unc.edu/remembrance/jerry-saye

The family has requested that memorial contributions be made in his honor 
to the School of Information and Library Science at UNC at Chapel Hill, 
the Orange County Rescue Squad or another charity of your choice.
