The 14 categories of information described in the guide include: (1) abstracts and indexes; (2) audiovisual sources; (3) computerized searching; (4) directories; (5) dissertations; (6) encyclopedias and dictionaries; (7) free materials; (8) guides; (9) handbooks; (10) journals; (11) statistical sources; (12) style manuals; (13) tests; and (14) yearbooks. Brief annotations accompany the majority of examples cited, and the various collections of print and nonprint materials available in the learning materials center are briefly described. (CGD)
