It’s tax time again, and LSU’s Middleton Library has schedules and forms to help you with your filing. Paper copies of schedules and forms are available on a display rack at the entrance to the Reference Room on the main floor. More copies are available in the Government Documents/ Microforms Department in the basement, Room 53. If you have trouble locating these display areas, please ask library staff for assistance

Should you want electronic information, the two links below can help you connect to either the IRS or the Louisiana Department of Revenue (LDR). The first web address will also provide further linkage to other states’ tax information.

Elissa S. Plank, Student/Circulation Supervisor in Middleton’s Government Documents and Microforms Department, is this year’s winner of the Louisiana Library Association’s (LLA) Lucy B. Foote Award. The award goes to an LLA member who works with library special collections and who has “made an outstanding contribution to the library profession.”

Ms. Foote, for whom the award is named, was during her lifetime (1893-1973) a Louisiana special collections librarian, a documents librarian, a head of cataloging at LSU, and compiler of the “Official Publications of the State of Louisiana, 1803-1934.”

Congratulations, Elissa!
