DECLARATION OF PAMELA STANSBURY
`
`I, Pamela Stansbury, being of full age and duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:
`
`I. I am an employee of the Cornell University Library, and specifically the Original
`Cataloging Unit, located at Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853. I am familiar
`with the policies and procedures of the Library as they relate to the receipt, cataloging,
`and tracking of books and I have personal knowledge of the facts set forth below. I am
`familiar with these procedures because I have been employed by the Library since 1982,
`where I began in Technical Services as a Serials Assistant, then a copy cataloger in the
`Cataloging Unit in 1984. I have held my current position as Administrative Supervisor in
`the Original Cataloging Unit since the mid-l 990s.
`
`2. The Cornell Library holds an original copy of the paper, A computational approach to
`grammatical coding of English works, by Sheldon Klein and Robert F. Simmons, in the
`Journal of the Association for Computing Machinery, v. 10, no. 3 (July 1963), pp. 334-
`347. I have been asked for information about A computational approach to grammatical
`coding of English works - specifically when this paper was first made publicly available
`by the Cornell Library. Based on my review of the Library's records and my knowledge
`of the Library's standard procedures, A computational approach to grammatical coding
`of English works was cataloged and publicly available at the Engineering Library, in its
`public stacks, shelved by its Library of Congress classification system number by August
`7, 1963. A date stamp of"AUG 7 1963" on the cover of the issue indicates that it arrived
`at the Engineering Library on August 7, 1963 and at that point would have been made
`available to the public.
`
`3. My opinion that A computational approach to grammatical coding of English works was
`cataloged and publicly available at the Cornell University Library no later than August 7,
`1963 is based on the date stamp on the cover of the issue, and my knowledge of the
`Library's standard procedures relevant to date stamping, cataloging, and shelving items. I
`have not seen any indication A computational approach to grammatical coding of
`English works would have been an exception to the Library's standard practice. The
`Library maintains a searchable and publicly accessible catalog of its publications.
`Therefore, as of August 7, 1963 for A computational approach to grammatical coding of
`English works, any member of the public could have located this item by searching our
`catalog by subject matter or journal title.
`
`4. The Cornell Library holds an original copy of the paper, Little words can make a big
`difference for text classification by Ellen Riloffin SIGIR '95, proceedings of the 18th
`Annual International ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in
`Information Retrieval, Seattle, Washington, July 9-13, 1995, pp. 130-136. I have also
`been asked for information about Little words can make a big difference for text
`classification - specifically when this paper was first made publicly available by the
`
`ActiveUS 164714436v.1

`arrived at the Engineering Library on August 21, 1995 and at that point would have been
`made available to the public.
`
`5. My opinion that Little words can make a big difference for text classification was
`cataloged and publicly available at the Cornell University Library no later than August
`21, 1995 is based on the date stamp on the back cover of the item, and my knowledge of
`_the Library's standard procedures relevant to date stapiping, cataloging, and shelving
