- Research Collections in Microform: A Selected Guide to the Holdings of the Kent State University Libraries. Second Edition. Geary, James W. Leary, Stephen D. Administrative Policy Black Studies College Libraries English Literature Higher Education History Library Acquisition Library Collections Microforms Political Science In 1987-88, a special project was undertaken involving the identification and verification of significant research collections in microform owned by the Kent State University Libraries. This activity resulted in a printed guide, which was updated in 1990 to reflect additional materials and new information. The revised second edition supersedes the first version in its entirety. It identifies new materials and reflects the library's holdings through May 10, 1990. In addition to a foreword and an introduction, there are two appendices consisting of Kent's recently developed policy, and a proposal form that will be used in considering future acquisitions. Over 350 distinct major microform sets are identified in the second edition. Those selected will appeal to users in various disciplines, but especially in Afro-American Studies, English, history, and political science. The full name of each collection, type of microform, amount of material, and call numbers appear in each entry. The inclusion of the name of the repository that owns the original materials listed will prove of particular value to advanced researchers. Most of the collections that were selected contain this information. Where available, finding aids to be used in conjunction with a collection are also included after the entry. Both editions were sponsored under the auspices of the Reference Department, Kent University State Libraries. (Author/SD)
