University Libraries faculty member Haiwang Yuan is featured in the newsletter (web version) of School of Library and Information Science (SLIS), Indiana University at Bloomington, for the book he recently authored: The Lotus Lantern and Other Tales from the Han Chinese.
Haiwang graduated from SLIS in 1995 and came to Western two years later. He is currently working on a sequel to the book with the help of the Western Kentucky University’s Summer Faculty Scholarship, the second he has acquired. He used the first to fund his trip to China in 2005 to collect folktales for The Magic Lotus Lantern book.
