Abstract
ABSTRACT Russian-born librarian extraordinaire Alexis Vasilevich Babine (1866–1930) is recognized for his accomplishments at Cornell University and the Library of Congress. In between, he spent several years at then new Stanford University (1898–1901/1902). Despite the fact that his role there was cut short by political turmoil, he is remembered for two notable contributions to the development of the Stanford University Library, as well as for his engaging personality.
