Subject: A Reference Gem for history ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Should be useful for cartographic research. LC The rich but painstaking-to-use "National Union Catalog of Manuscript Collections" (NUCMC) now has a 25-year cumulative subject and corporate author index, which will be shelved at the end of the set (see Roger record below). To be sure, this is not a resource for undergraduates looking for primary sources. But it does reduce the time in locating manuscript collections in the U.S. For example, under San Diego the index has 2/3 page of listing. "Television" goes on for a page. "University of California" has about 2 columns, and is subdivided by campus (mostly UCB).
