IIGS™ Newsletter - December 1998
Editor's note: It seems that in the transmission of the information for the Tinney article titled, "A Great Online Research Source" in the December issue of the IIGS™ Newsletter, some material was inserted in the wrong place in the article and some was left out. While we cannot change what the published article contains, we can post a correction here. The IIGS™ Newsletter regrets the error, which includes the fact that the authors of "A Great Online Research Source" should have been listed as V. Chris and Thomas M. Tinney, Sr.*In the original article, it should have been noted that IREX (International Research and Exchanges Board) can be found under Genealogy and History.
IREX comes out of this Genealogy and History site section mentioned heretofore, listed with:
Federation Of East European Family History Societies (FEEFHS). This is the "one stop" Central and East European genealogy site. There are also other links to different parts of the world. See also: German Libraries Online. This also includes foreign Online Public Access Catalogues. IREX promotes mutual understanding and international cooperation between the United States and the countries of Central and Eastern Europe, Eurasia and Northeast Asia.*Also, the Special Projects in Library and Information Science is located under Library and Archival Resourcesat the IREX site.
It is not located at http://www.dcn.davis.ca.us/~vctinney/geneal.htm as noted in the article.
*In conclusion, UCD MELVYL® LIBRARY INFORMATION & LINKS and Other Library Sources are presented at LIBRARIES
This site "housed at the University of California-Davis" includes:
PUB LISTThe premier online global reference resource for information about print and electronic publications. The most comprehensive directory of information about more than 150,000 publications and more than 8,000 newspapers around the world. Information comes from definitive sources such as Ulrich's™ International Periodicals Directory. Example Reference: Genealogy
WWW Interface to Manuscript files in RLIN/Eureka The Library of Congress has made available this web site of approximately 400,000 records from archival collections in libraries, museums, state archives and historical societies throughout North America. This is a significant resource for genealogical and family history researchers. Use the RLIN AMC File Easy Search Form (word list) for words in name, title and subject fields.
This latter site includes direct connection to NUCMC. Cynthia M. Van Ness, M.L.S. has stated: ' I heartily recommend visiting the "National Union Catalog of Manuscript Collections," also known as NUCMC . . .'
