A C R L Expands Jo b Listing Activities Beginning in January 1979, the ACRL office will start a new program to provide librarians with information on jo b openings in a speedy, timely fashion. T he service will supplement the listings that will continue to appear in C ù R L News. A circular will be prepared each month list­ ing those jo b openings received in the previ­ ous four weeks. There will be a time lag of one to four weeks between an ad being re­ ceived in the ACRL office and it being in the hands o f the reader. The cutoff date for the receip t of listings will be the third o f each month. On a trial basis this service will be available to ACRL members for free and to nonmem­ bers for $10. Persons participating in the ser­ vice will receive mailings for six months. At the end of each six-month period, it will be necessary to sign up for the service again. Those people interested in receiving these mailings should write to Placement Mailings, ACRL/ALA, 50 E . Huron S t., Chicago, IL 60611. 323 The Gale Genealogy and Local History Series includes annotated bibliographies, indexes, union catalogs and union lists, abstracts of records, and national ethnic, religious, regional, and state guides for genealogical and local history research. Many of the volumes in the Series provide guidance characteristic of how-to-do-it books. Written for both amateur and professional genealogists and helpful to librarians maintaining genealogical collections, the volumes in the Series are compiled by specialists under the direction of Series Editor J . Carlyle Parker, Head of Public Services and Assistant Library Director, California State College, and Founder and Librar­ ian Volunteer, Modesto California Branch Genealogical Library of the Genealogical Department of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter- day Saints, Salt Lake City. All of the volumes described below were published in Fall 1978. Other volumes in the Series are now in preparation. All volumes are uniformly bound and are priced at $22.00 each. GENEALOGICAL RESEARCH FOR CZECH AND SLOVAK AMERICANS. Edited by Olga K. Miller. (Vol. 2 in the Series.) 187 pages. Offers practical advice and specific information for dealing with the linguistic, historical, and politi­ cal complexities of Czech genealogi­ cal research. The bulk of the guide is concerned with the location and availability of vital records, parish registers, census returns, military records, land records, and other data essential to the family historian. Additional material includes a dis­ cussion of the language, a section on the different scripts used in Czech record-keeping, and an extensive list of names, abbreviations, and terms found in genealogical records. A SURVEY OF AMERICAN G EN EA LO G IC AL P E R IO D I­ CALS AND PERIODICAL IN­ DEXES. Edited by Kip Sperry, Technical Writer and U.S. Research Specialist, Genealogical Society, Salt Lake City. (Vol. 3 in the Series.) 199 pages. This work is a key to the abundant material contained in genealogical periodicals. Introduc­ tory chapters cover the use of periodi­ cals in the strategy of research, while the main part of the guide presents individual chapters devoted to the major indexes of American genea­ logical periodicals. BLACK GENESIS: An Annotated Bibliography f o r Black Genealogical Research. Edited by James M. Rose and Alice Eichholz. (Vol. 1 in the Series.) 326 pages. The first compre­ hensive bibliographic guide of its kind, Black Genesis refutes the notion that there are few available primary resources for the student or practitioner of Black genealogy by uncovering numerous records of the past 350 years. Includes general re­ marks about the types and usefulness of various sources, names and ad­ dresses of important government and private sources, sections on indi­ vidual states with large Black popu­ lations, a “how to” section for be­ ginners, and much more. GENEALOGICAL-HISTORICAL GUIDE TO LATIN AMERICA. Edited by Lyman De Platt. (Vol. 4 in the Series.) 273 pages. The guide moves from a consideration of general political, social, and cul­ tural influences on genealogical record-keeping in Latin America, to a detailed listing of where specific records may be found. The first ten chapters cover topics relevant to the region as a whole; the remaining chapters are devoted to individual countries. Some chapters contain annotated bibliographies in addition to textual material, and tables of significant dates are frequently given. A PERSONAL NAME INDEX TO ORTON’S “RECORDS OF CALI­ FORNIA MEN IN THE WAR OF THE REBELLION, 1861 - 1867.” Original volume compiled by Brig.- Gen. Richard H. Orton, Adjutant- General of California, and published in Sacramento, 1890. This index compiled by J . Carlyle Parker. (Vol. 5 in the Series.) 153 pages. The original work to which this volume is an index is a difficult-to-use register of over 14,000 California volunteers who fought in the Civil War from 1861-67. Orton’s register is arranged according to rank and/or company, rather than alphabetically by sur­ name. This arrangement makes Parker’s index essential for genealo­ gists and historians interested in con­ sulting the original register. In the introduction to his index, Parker indicates how to use the information contained in Orton’s register to ob­ tain the more detailed Compiled Service Records (both military and pension) for any individual listed. (Orton’s 887-page Records is avail­ able from Gale in a reprint edition priced at $45.00.) ALL GALE BOOKS A RE SENT ON 30-DAY APPROVAL GALE RESEARCH CO.
