VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT

Herbert Ockerman
Columbus

As a 48-year Professor of Animal Sciences at The Ohio State University, Herbert W. Ockerman collects used books and distributes them to alumni members throughout the world to be place in university libraries. To date, he has made 1578 shipments to 393 locations.

Estimated value to date is $500,750,800. There are currently 40,000 books in his garage waiting for his next shipment. He does this because the books are desperately needed and appreciated in areas that do not have ready access in many cases to educational materials.
