内容説明 As Woody Allen famously noted， ＂Eighty percent of success is showing up.＂ And for an increasing number of us， showing up is as easy as a quick trip to our favourite search engine. But what of that crucial 20 per cent? According to Nancy Bunker， a trained archivist and reference librarian of many years standing， success lies in careful planning. Her particular combination of foresight and attention to detail makes her the perfect tour guide for scholars in search of manuscript and photograph collections in Washington， Oregon， and Idaho. The core of the book contains profiles of 175 institutions， covering a broad cross-section of public libraries， academic libraries， historical societies， museums and governmental agencies. Each profile includes the basics: contact information， directions， URLs and email addresses， costs， accessibility， and subject specialties. Bunker actually visited the institution in question; so she speaks with the voice of experience! In addition， Bunker takes great care to offer invaluable advice about the nature of archival research， what to take with you， and what to expect when you get there. All in all， a beautiful and authoritative work that will earn its keep many times over， whether as part of a reference collection or on one’s personal bookshelf.
