- The History of Technology. LC Science Tracer Bullet. Niskern, Diana, Comp. Books Chronicles Citations (References) Guides Periodicals Reference Materials Science History Technological Advancement Technology Textbooks The history of technology can be approached not only as a chronology of machine development and a study of artifacts, but also as a study of economic and social development. Although the emphasis in this document is on general histories of technology in the English language, many of the sources listed could be useful in compiling the histories of individual branches of technology. This guide to the literature on the history of technology in the collections of the Library of Congress is not necessarily intended to be a comprehensive bibliography. It is designed to provide the reader with a set of resources that can be used to focus on the topic. The document lists the subject headings used by the Library of Congress in cataloging information on the history of technology. It also contains citations of materials categorized as: (1) brief introductions; (2) basic texts; (3) additional titles; (4) handbooks and encyclopedias; (5) other bibliographies; (6) conference proceedings; (7) government publications; (8) abstracting and indexing services; (9) journal articles; (10) technical reports; and (11) additional sources of information.
