Charlotte Serber edit

  • ... that Charlotte Serber created a library for the secret Project Y where one "was apt to find the librarian in blue jeans, one assistant in the best sweater girl tradition, another in strict WAAC uniform, and a third in the latest Lane Bryant number."? Source: Offline, but if you have a JSTOR account it is quoted here
  • ALT1 ... that Charlotte Serber worked at the secret Project Y during World War II, but after the war could not get a security clearance to work as a librarian at Berkeley? Source: "Charlotte Serber (1911-1967) was the Los Alamos site librarian and only female group leader of the Manhattan Project... While in Berkeley, Charlotte attempted to become the librarian for the Berkeley Radiation Laboratory. She was unsuccessful, however, because she was not able to gain a security clearance." [1]

  • This article is new enough and long enough. Striking ALT0 because it is too long (247 characters). The ALT1 hook facts are cited inline, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 20:06, 1 May 2018 (UTC)
