'Friends of the Library' at 天美影视 Publishes New Resource on 天美影视 History

The "Friends of the Library," a non-profit volunteer organization that supports University Library at the University of 天美影视 at Monroe, recently published the "Bibliography of 天美影视 Parish History: A Sourcebook for Local History," compiled by Dr. H. Glenn Jordan.

Jordan says he completed the work in response to the many 天美影视-related history questions he has received over his 30-year career as historian, professor and archivist.

A provider of source information on the history and culture of all 64 parishes and their inhabitants, the book contains full bibliographic citations which should be of value to a wide range of researchers from junior high school students to academic researchers and genealogists.

In announcing this publication, "Friends" President Elaine Smith expressed her appreciation to Dr. Jordan for donating his work to "Friends."

"This publication provides a new, reasonably priced resource in hopes that many people will be able to discover more about the local and regional history of 天美影视," Smith said.

The bibliography is available by mail for $15 per book, plus $4.50 for tax, shipping and handling. Proceeds will benefit University Library. Checks should be made payable to the 天美影视 Foundation. Orders may be mailed to: FOL-天美影视, c/o University Library, University of 天美影视 at Monroe, Monroe, LA 71209. The book is also available in BellTower Books, the "Friends'" resale bookshop located on the fourth floor of the University Library.
