Using Maps in Genealogy Fact Sheet 099-02 (September 2002) Getting Started How Maps Can Be Useful Finding the Right Maps Gathering Other Resources ... More Information Getting Started Maps are one of the many sources you may need to complete a family tree. In genealogical research, maps can provide clues to where our ancestors may have lived and where to look for written records about them. Beginners should master basic genealogical research techniques before starting to use topographic maps. Introductory books on genealogy suggest timesaving ways to plan, gather, organize, and record findings. To learn basic genealogical research techniques, it's best to start with the most concise, easy-to-read books, gazetteers, articles, pamphlets, and other sources that apply directly to the kind of research you plan to do. Books on the shelves of your local library may not include those that will best serve your purpose. However, many libraries and bookstores have the latest edition of Books in Print. Its subject guide gives the titles, authors, publishers, and prices of hundreds of books on genealogy. Many libraries also have directories that give the names and addresses of local, State, regional, and national associations of genealogists, historians, and ethnic groups.

Instructor: Doug Highsmith Finding and Using Reference Works I. Abstract Like indexes (see below), abstracts provides bibliographic citations (author, title, publication data) for information sources (often, but not always, periodical articles). Unlike indexes, abstracts provide brief summaries of the contents of the sources they cite. These summaries, or abstracts, are not intended to serve as a substitute for reading the cited sources, but rather to provide further guidance as to the contents of the sources, and their relevance to the information seeker. Almanac A compilation of current and historical facts narrative, statistical and graphic (maps, country flags, etc.) on a wide array of topics. General almanacs provide broad coverage both geographically and in terms of subjects covered. Specialized almanacs concentrate on specific countries or regions, or particular topic areas. Almanacs are usually published annually. Atlas Bibliography A compilation or list of related works (books, periodical articles, electronic sources, etc.), providing bibliographic information (author, title, publication data) about each of the works listed. Bibliographies usually group together works by a particular author or on a particular topic. Bibliographies can appear at the end of books or articles to document sources used in the preparation of the book or article, or can be published as stand-alone informational sources. Biographical Source Sources that provide personal data about and/or brief biographical sketches about prominent individuals. Biographical sources usually cover specific geographic areas (e.g.

It is a program that helps to develop the students reasoning abilities and promotes higher thinking skills. Study Skills also play an important role in this program, as the student will have to do extensive reading and research in order to gather information. The students will also apply writing skills to communicate ideas effectively. Using maps, tables, graphs, and diagrams daily is also an integral part of this program GOAL 1: Trace the history of the United States beginning with the early explorations, and note the changes that occurred within it. Objective 1: Examine the lives of the earliest inhabitants of the North American continent and show how their environment affected their lifestyles.

Cofrin Library Catalog Library Site Index Ask a Librarian! A Guide to the Cofrin Library Map Collection Return to Library Guides The Cofrin Library's map collection is actually composed of several separate mini-collections. There is no one single index or catalog that lists all of our maps. Most of the maps are housed in the Government Publications area on the fifth floor, since the majority are produced by a government agency. The bulk of the collection is stored flat in large metal cases at the back of the 5th floor. Some subject series, such as the aeronautical charts or the Hydrologic Investigations series, are stored folded in filing cabinets. Older or more fragile maps are housed in the Special Collections Department on 7th Floor. Maps are for library use only and normally do not circulate. THE MAIN MAP COLLECTION Most general maps, sets of USGS topographic maps, and single sheet maps, are found in the main map collection. For example, if you are looking for a current general world map, a street map of Madison, a road map, a political map of China, or a map depicting Indian tribes, you would want to start with the main map collection. The maps in the main collection are classified (arranged) according to the Library of Congress system, just like the books in our circulating collection. There are two sources you need to consult for finding materials in the main map collection: the
