NOTE [RETURN]
|
While the primary objective of the Ellen Clarke Bertrand Library is to provide the highest standard of service to the faculty, students, and staff of the university, the needs of other researchers are recognized, and generally can be accommodated during times when campus usage is at lower levels. This guide, generated to assist genealogists in their search for family history, is available in both bound paper copies, and in electronic format on the web at: http://www.departments.bucknell.edu/isr/sheary/ Use of the information compiled here can eliminate replication of effort and unnecessary costs. An Introduction to Genealogical Research, and Selected Electronic Genealogical Sources are included. These should be consulted first. The Internet can be one of the best approaches to family history research. Not only are there instructional pages, but many repositories offer direct access to large informational databases. After becoming familiar with the list of holdings, and the accessibility of material for all repositories in the four-county area, researchers can tailor their plans to yield the best results. Most state archives, family history centers, historical societies, and public libraries offer services specifically geared to genealogical studies. Some of these repositories have the same resources as academic institutions and courthouses, and many may have more lineage records, published histories, indexes, bibliographies, and biographies. There are a number of factors to consider in organizing genealogical research. Users are strongly advised to make prior arrangements before visiting a repository. Fragility, copyright, and donor restrictions may preclude duplication of material. Inquiries must be clear and concise. Immediate responses to mail or phone requests cannot be expected, given limited staff and high usage. Researchers should be aware that few indexes are available for works published in the 19th century. Early newspapers do not have separate sections devoted to births, marriages, and deaths. Also, sending simultaneous questions to every area repository can be confusing, and expensive. Searches should be narrowed according to location and holdings. It is helpful to become familiar with the finding aids that are available before constructing a research strategy. Some sources listed may be covered by the U. S. Copyright Law. Fair use permits the reproduction of single copies of copyrighted material for educational or personal use. Redistribution or replication in any medium requires consent.
