Summary

Other chapters cover electronic resources, organizations and associations, museums, archives, and libraries. The author has included atlases, chronologies, bibliographies, biographical dictionaries, indexes, abstracts for journals, glossaries, and encyclopedias, with brief descriptive annotations on most entries. This work is a pertinent addition to the general reference collections of public and academic libraries as well as to special libraries, government documents collections, military and intelligence agency libraries, and historical societies and museums.
