With generous contributions from Bob Foote, Steve
Graves, and Dave Hunt to the collection of physical
issues of *Operations Research* here at William &
Mary, we are now a mere 21 issues short of having a
complete collection of the journal. The missing
issues are
Volume 1 All issues (1953)
Volume 2 All issues (1954)
Volume 3 All issues (1955)
Volume 4 Numbers 4 and 5 (1956)
Volume 9 Number 1 (1961)
Please check with retired colleagues who have been
long-time members of ORSA/TIMS/INFORMS who might
have some of these early issues stashed in an attic
that they might be willing to contribute. If you
hear of an academic library or a company removing
their physical copies of OR, please check with them
to see if they can complete our collection. Contact
me at leemis@math.wm.edu if you have any leads on
these missing issues. Thank you!
