senior journalism professors, on bibliographic resources and research methods for historians concerned with journalism in the US. Michael Murray writes on the American Journalism Historians Association (which has sponsored this guide), W. David Sloan on historiography, John Pauly on trends in research in the field, Jean Ward and Kathleen Hansen on printed bibliographies and electronic databases of particular interest to journalism historians, Gary Charbonneau on the US Newspaper Program, and Maurine Beasley on oral history. The remainder of the guide comprises a state-by-state listing of significant archival and manuscript sources currently available to researchers in the US. Only basic directory information is provided for each repository, such as address, telephone number, name of librarian or curator, and availability of photocopy services. A detailed name index for the archival and manuscript section concludes the book; regrettably, the initial essays, which contain many specific references, are not indexed.
