Strategies for Finding Biographical Sources on DELCAT Introduction Thousands of sources in the Library and on the Internet may contain biographical information. This guide provides citations or links to many of them. By using some recommended search strategies on DELCAT you should be able to ferret out additional sources not listed here. Determining the appropriate biographical source involves first asking yourself three questions. These are: "Is the person alive or dead?" "Is the person American or not?" "Is the person noted in a particular place or profession, or of a particular ethnicity or gender?" Depending on your answer to the first question, proceed either to the section in this guide covering biographical sources which are retrospective or general in scope (these include persons of all historical periods, including the present, or those who are dead) or to the section covering sources which are contemporary in scope (these include only living persons). Upon arriving at your jumping-off point, be prepared to ask yourself the second and third questions.

It is not noted if these items were returned. However, it is known that the bulk of this material comes from two sources: Ernestine Thurman-Swartzwelder and Dorothy Furlong-Gardner. Other sources are Linda Perret and Martha Owens. RESTRICTIONS: None ORGANIZATION AND ARRANGEMENT: The material has been arranged within individual collections.
