IRIS will include Authority Control, which means that for the first time we will have "see" and "search under" references in the catalog. QUICK SEARCH The initial IRIS search screen will have radio buttons which will allow for searching by either "Keyword" or "Browse." Whereas in the past all Quick Search searches except for "Search Everything" automatically defaulted to "Browse," the selected default will now be "Keyword." Search the Library Catalog choose one: keyword browse enter term(s): click type: From a user's perspective, in most cases the switch to the keyword default will actually allow for a smoother and less confusing integration of the Authorities file into the database. However, users accustomed to doing title and other exact sequence searches with a Browse default are likely to be perplexed by the large number of apparent "false hits" that they're suddenly going to be getting.

An American loves his family. If he has any love left over for some other person he generally selects Mark Twain. Thomas Edison The world knows him as Mark Twain, the perpetually quotable writer of such classic American novels as The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn and Tom Sawyer . But some people don't know that Samuel Clemens was the name he was born with or that he published the Personal Memoirs of Ulysses S. Grant , one of the most popular books of the nineteenth century. Born in Florida, Missouri, in 1835, Samuel Clemens moved to Hannibal, Missouri, a Mississippi River town, when he was four. When Samuel was 11, his father died, and the boy went to work to help support his family. At 13, he began working as a printer's apprentice for his brother Orion, who published a newspaper in Hannibal. As a young man, Clemens worked as a printer in a number of towns and cities, including New York, Philadelphia, and St. Louis. For years, Samuel had written short, funny stories and tall tales about life in America. He had even published a few. But about 1857, on a trip down the Mississippi, he abandoned his writing to pursue a lifelong dream becoming a riverboat pilot. After 18 months of hard work, he earned his pilot's license. Altogether, Twain spent four years steaming up and down the Mississippi. When the Civil War broke out, Twain spent a few weeks in the Confederate army before resigning and heading to Nevada, where his brother Orion had been appointed territorial secretary. While there, Clemens began to write again and adopted the pen name "Mark Twain." A term used in river navigation, "mark twain" means water that is two fathoms (or about 12 feet) deep.

He moved gradually from journalism to travel writing and then to fiction, aided by the success of his 1869 travel memoir The Innocents Abroad .

Samuel Langhorne Clemens (Mark Twain) (1835-1910) Contributing Editor: Everett Emerson Classroom Issues and Strategies The question might be asked, "Why is it that Mark Twain's writings and personality are so appealing?" I share my affection for the author with my students. I note that Mark Twain's readers enjoy Huckleberry Finn more if they know some Shakespeare and something about the French Revolution. Both of these loomed large in the author's consciousness when he wrote his masterpiece. Mark Twain began his career as a humorist. In both Huckleberry Finn and all of his other better pieces, an important aspect of his work is the speaker's presentation of himself. What connection does this interest in the speaker or teller have to Mark Twain's humor? Students are interested but edgy when I raise the question of the word "nigger" in the book. They ought to know that the term was used not long ago by many blacks as well as unsympathetic whites. But the appearance of the word in the book, despite the historical accuracy of the use of the term, needs careful consideration. Major Themes, Historical Perspectives, and Personal Issues

Clemens, best known as Mark Twain, is at the same time revered as a classic American writer and one of the most popular—in his own lifetime and at present, in the United States and abroad. Born in Missouri, he was brought up in the Mississippi River town of Hannibal, which, as St. Petersburg, was to provide the setting for Tom Sawyer and the early chapters of Huckleberry Finn. When his father died in young Sam's eleventh year, he left school and went to work for a printing shop. Soon he was attracted to the possibility of writing, and as early as his sixteenth year he published a piece in a Boston magazine. After four years of travel as a journeyman printer, he determined to become a riverboat pilot. How he learned the piloting skills and what they meant to him as a writer he later recounted, memorably, in "Old Times on the Mississippi," which was incorporated into Life on the Mississippi.
