A plaque is to be unveiled in Brighton's Jubilee library to honour a leading figure on the city's cultural scene.
Tony Miller, Brighton and Hove city council's deputy chief executive and director of cultural services, died of cancer in February, aged 53.
Libraries were among his responsibilities along with museums, The Royal Pavilion, arts and tourism.
The plaque is being placed in the library's special collections room, which is being renamed the Tony Miller Reading Room. The move reflects Mr Miller's life-long love of rare and historic books.
After graduating from Sussex University he ran two second-hand bookshops in Brighton and had a substantial personal collection.
Council chief executive Alan McCarthy said: "This is a fitting tribute to Tony. He'd no doubt have been very modest about his achievements as he was better at giving others the limelight rather than himself.
"But I think he would have been quietly proud. It's also important that his family and particularly his children have some permanent monument to the fact he was so widely loved and respected."
The unveiling will be attended by colleagues and close family members on Friday afternoon.
