Microforms and Non-Print Collection

Sets and Collections:
Titles Starting with "E"



EARLY AMERICAN IMPRINTS (First Series.) 1639-1800.
Also known as "Evans", this set contains the full-text of non-serial titles listed in the Charles Evans American Bibliography and its supplements, a catalog of books published in America, all subjects. Over 42,000 titles are cited, including pamphlets and broadsides. The Microprint facsimiles are arranged according "Evans" numbers. Browsing the guide has advantages, and sometimes the records appear on ALICE, but the most comprehensive bibliographic source for this collection is the English Short Title Catalog available on-line on RLG's RLIN (Eureka) system via OhioLink. This source includes PRE-18TH century materials. -- See the English Short Title Catalogue for more details. M/Print AC 1, printed guide, Z1215 .E923.


EARLY AMERICAN NEWSPAPERS, 1704-1820+.
This set will eventually comprise 2,000 American newspapers covering this crucial period in the Nation's history, some titles are carried past 1820. The set (Readex Microprint) is based on Brigham's two volume History and Bibliography of American Newspapers. The early newspaper is a direct line of communication to famous or infamous persons, to pressing issues of the times (such as the 'anti-inoculation' cause), and a source of a wide range of opinion, social history, and facts. Papers range from the NATIONAL INTELLIGENCER, the official organ of the Jefferson Administrations, to the PENNSYLVANIA EVENING POST, the first daily paper in the U. S. and where the Declaration of Independence first appeared, and to the NEW ENGLAND COURANT, an entertainment oriented paper edited by Benjamin Franklin. M/Print AN A1 (public access, center shelves), the microfilm is filed with Microprint. As yet, this collection is not represented on ALICE, consult United States Newspapers (State/city listing); the collection is arranged by state, city, then title. Make sure to note the exact box number (begin with "EAN") and the title's format ("prt" or "flm"). The library staff can get you started.
The most rewarding method and nearly the only method of finding materials within these newspapers is obtaining a title of potential interest and browsing its contents. Some other papers from this general time period have been indexed which can also provide lead information in many cases for researching non-indexed titles. One such paper is the Virginia Gazette (not part of this specific collection) to which a two-volume printed index has been compiled (Micro Coll Ref AI 21.V5). Increasingly some newspapers may become available on-line and would quite likly offer full-text keyword indexing.


EARLY AMERICAN PERIODICALS, INDEX, to 1850
. This set is a reproduction of a card catalog at the American Antiquarian Society, the Library has the titles indexed, most are in the American Periodical Series. (Consult the Microform periodical/Newspaper list or ALICE for locations of specific titles.) M/Print Z...


EARLY ENGLISH BOOKS,
Series I, 1475-1640 is based on Pollard and Redgrave's A SHORT-TITLE CATALOG OF BOOKS PRINTED IN ENGLAND, SCOTLAND AND IRELAND, AND OF ENGLISH BOOKS PRINTED ABROAD 1475-1640. Also known as "STC I" or "POLLARD & REDGRAVE", this ambitious project by University Microfilms International contains full-text copies of about 30,000 works, including about 2000 recently added titles that were not listed in STC I originally. The collection attempts to include every book printed in English, anywhere, between 1475-1640, thus one finds a fascinating range of military, religious, legal documents; almanacs and calendars, broadsides, romances, practical guides, medical books, agriculture and hunting manuals. Entries for an increasing portion of STC I books are in ALICE, or WorldCat. However, the most comprehensive bibliographic source for this collection is the English Short Title Catalogue available on-line on the RLG RLIN (Eureka) system via OhioLink. -- See the English Short Title Catalogue for more details. The microform staff can assist in interpreting the record and locating the reel number. Those wishing to browse printed indexes can also consult the original Pollard and Redgrave Short-Title Catalogue; Z2002 .P77 1948x, ask at Desk. In most cases the appropriate reel numbers have been penciled in, if not, note the STC number in the left margin and look up this number in the cross reference index to reels 1-1885. If not listed here you may need to examine the individual guides for units 53 onward. Though STC I set is complete, an occasional supplement is issued. Each reel begins with a contents page (STC numbers), the books are on the film in the same order as the numbers appear. The Subject Guide of Books ...to...1880 (R.A. Peddie, MICRO Z1035 .P37 1962) is sometimes a useful tool for determining particular titles or authors. Ask at Desk for the microfilm, Microfilm 41. (Formerly Microfilm 2.)


EARLY ENGLISH BOOKS,
Series II, 1641-1700 (based on Donald Wing's SHORT-TITLE CATALOGUE OF BOOKS PRINTED IN ENGLAND, SCOTLAND, IRELAND, WALES AND BRITISH AMERICA). This set is also known as "STC II" or "Wing" with much the same scope and range of content as STC I. University Microfilms will eventually film every book printed in English up to 1700, and as with STC I some records may appear on ALICE, but the most comprehensive bibliographic source is the English Short Title Catalogue available on-line on the RLG RLIN (Eureka) system via OhioLink. See the English Short Title Catalogue for more details. The microform staff can assist in interpreting the record and locating the reel number. If you wish to consult printed indexes, there are several. There is a subject index Accessing Early English Books (Z2002 .U586) which is occasionally updated. There are reel guides for new shipments. There is also the Subject Guide Of Books ...To...1880 (R.A. Peddie, Z1035 .P37 1962) which is sometimes useful for both STC I & II. The original printed guide is the Wing three-volume Short Title Catalogue, MICRO Z2002 .W5. Reel numbers have been written in by the library staff. In Wing arrangement is by author, then titles are numbered consecutively within each letter of the alphabet. To date over 50,000 titles have been filmed. The collection is still in progress and is issued a little more frequently than the Library can afford installments. If necessary, check the Library's records in the Acquisition Department for current holdings. A few serial titles (session laws and almanacs) are also included, as well as items from the THOMASON COLLECTION OF BOOKS ON THE CIVIL WAR AND THE COMMONWEALTH. These are identified by "Thomason number", some are on reels 228-266 of STC II, but the remainder is in a separate collection (The Thomason Tracts). Microfilm 42. Ask at Desk. Printed guides, Z2002 .P77 1969 (etc.)

Another set is the EARLY ENGLISH BOOKS. TRACT SUPPLEMENT

which contains small items such as broadsides and pamphlets which were collected into scrapbooks by the British Library. Items in this collection compliment the Early English books collections, the Thomason Tracts, as well as Quaker Women's Tracts. These items can also be located by way of the English Short Title Catalogue (ESTC.) 73+ reels microfilm; Micro Z2002 .U593x (filed after the Wing series.)


ECONOMIC AND SOCIAL DEVELOPMENT PLANS.
The micropublisher (IDC) has a Cumulative Catalog which lists plans by continent and country. The above catalog is marked, the Library has holdings for selected countries in Africa, Latin America, and Southeast Asia. The dates of the plans are mostly from the 1950's thru the 1970's. Some have been cataloged, and the Library has many hard-copy plans as well, check ALICE. "Development plans", which are quite varied as to specific title or scope and by what organization or agency submitted, can contain quite detailed information on agriculture, industries, economics, and culture. Ask at Desk --see-- specific countries. Microfiche 74. (Also check ALICE.)


EDWARD R. MURROW. PAPERS, 1927-1965.
This is a microfilm set of the original papers in the Edward R. Murrow Center of Public Diplomacy, Tufts University. The material provides insights into Murrow himself and into the history of radio and T.V. broadcast journalism. The collection includes Murrow's correspondence (received and sent); personal papers, family documents, clippings; includes Morrow's professional papers such as those dealing with the administration within CBS and his position as Director of United States Information Agency; and finally papers relating to fraternal and philanthropic activities. 50 reels microfilm and printed guide, PN4874 .M89 1982x.


EIGHTEENTH CENTURY.
This is a very large micropublishing venture by Research Publications based on the Eighteenth Century Short Title Catalogue (ESTC) database. The Ohio University Library does not own this collection, but references to materials in other microform collections, such as the Early American Imprints (Evans) would be included in the English Short Title Catalogue. -- See the English Short Title Catalogue for more details (and where specific titles can be located.)

This material will be placed on ALICE, the Author/Title catalog can provide an overview. M/Ultra, ask at Desk. Printed author and title Guides, Z2100 .L73 Pt.1. Another comprehensive bibliographic source for locating this this type of material is the ENGLISH SHORT TITLE CATALOG (ESTC) available on-line on the RLG s RLIN (Eureka) system via OhioLink. -- See the English Short Title Catalogue for more details.


ENGLISH POETRY,
Middle English, 1100-1500. M/Card. "Middle ..."


ENGLISH SHORT TITLE CATALOGUE. (ESTC) or (EngSTC) (includes Eighteenth Century Short-Title Catalogue, formerly a microfiche index.)
The ESTC is now also available on-line the RLG's RLIN (Eureka) system. This is accessed through OhioLink and is available to Ohio University users only. The British Library has a good description of the history and current status of the English Short Title Project.
The ESTC describes English or English-language letterpress materials published in Great Britain, its colonies, or in English before 1801.

The Library has a 1992 version of the ESTC (Eighteenth Century Short Title Catalogue) on CD-ROM, but its usefulness is limited. In 1994 the Eighteenth Century Short-Title Catalog was expanded to include pre-18th century materials and renamed the English Short Title Catalogue ("EngSTC" but still referred to as "ESTC"). It now comprehensively contains records from other catalogs for the years 1473-1801, including bibliographic access to some 200,000 items printed between 1701 and 1801 included in microform sets in Ohio University Library such as the EARLY ENGLISH BOOKS SERIES (Pollard and Redgrave; and Wing) and to Evan's EARLY AMERICAN IMPRINT SERIES..

The ESTC contains approximately 450,000 records to date. The RLG version continues to be updated daily as new titles are cataloged. This invaluable research tool for those interested in the English language, literature, culture, history, as well as early scientific works. The indexing includes words in title imprint, place, and year.

Besides the advantage of one-stop shopping, the ESTC is a union list of over 1000 libraries world-wide; one can browse by author, title, or by subject headings. Use both the 'browse' and the 'find' commands for different results. Also remember the 'bye' command, and 'return' for next page. The system has on-line help screens.

The bibliographic descriptions are detailed. The scope of the ESTC is very broad including advertisements, published membership or shipping lists, schedules, government publications, annuals, etc. Periodicals, maps, music are not included.

Upon finding a citation that is in a microform collections, write down the bibliographic source identification number (e.g. Wing S994) and the complete set information (e.g. Early English Books, 1641-1700; 822:21.) The latter reference means reel number 822, item 21 on that reel. A microform reel may contain over 60 books, so knowing the Wing S994 can give you an idea of the relative position of the title on the reel (first frame lists the numbers) and help identify proper box. In most cases you will need to ask at the Microform Desk for the materials and the staff can provide assistance.

A related project that might have some impact in the future and is now a potential alternative source for full-text facsimiles is the Eighteenth Century Digitization Project.



ENVIROFICHE
"addresses the impact of humankind and technology on the environment with attention to air, water, and noise pollution; solid and toxic wastes; radiological contamination; toxicological effects; control technologies; resource management; population; endangered species; and geophysical and climatic change." The Library has microfiche from 1984 to February 1998 (v14#1-) which contain full text of most journal articles, proceedings, and reports cited in ENVIRONMENT ABSTRACTS, REF GF1 .E559 (Reference, 4th Floor, also CD-ROM, ENVIRO/ENERGYLINE ABSTRACTS). Items with full text on microfiche are noted with an asterisk before the accession number. Note that the CD-ROM search may also include references to "Energyline" (also marked with an asterisk). The Library does not subscribe to Energyline; if using the CD-ROM check the top right corner of the screen for "energy" or "environment". Any resulting printout will not provide this information. If there are no microfiche to match your printed citation, check to make sure this is not a reference to Energyline. Sometimes the Library has the original material cited, check Alice. For microfiche (1984-1998), ask at First floor Desk, (Note to staff, filed under Microfiche 12.) This was cancelled by the Library in February 1998.


ERIC (Educational Resources Information Center)
"ERIC" is a nationwide information network of subject-oriented clearinghouses of professionals supported by a production and coordinating staff in Washington, D.C. devoted to acquiring, abstracting, and indexing education-related materials, 1966 - current. ERIC also indexes over 900 educational journals. A program of interest here is the network's having disseminated over 430,000 significant and timely reports through a large on-going microfiche program with a growing electronic delivery component. The Library subscribes to the ERIC full-text service, subscribes to most of the educational journals indexed by ERIC, and has the complete microfiche "ED" series plus several earlier sets (Microfiche 1 through Microfiche 7).

Of main interest here is searching the more than 1 million records of journal articles, research reports, curriculum and teaching guides, conference papers, and books. The Library's InfoTree system contains a link to ERIC in its section on Education. This will search the entire ERIC database, including journals. It is not a bad idea to print the citations/abstracts of your results, or at least note any "ED" and "CIJE" numbers for future reference.

There are a variety of means to access ERIC materials and what ERIC indexes. Also ERIC has several components. To learn more about ERIC follow the links in the last paragraph below. Please note the following to cut down on stress and grief in finding the materials your search as retreived.

  1. Note that SearchNet, for example, may default to searching both "CIJE" series (journal articles, "EJ" numbers) and the "RIE" series (non-journal materials, "ED" numbers.)

  2. "EJ" numbers are not microfiche, full-text, nor part of the First Floor ERIC collection. To retrieve the full article you must first obtain the journal itself (check 'availability'; or ALICE directly) for printed or electronic version of the journal, then find article.

  3. "ED" citations are usually available on microfiche and/or full-text. Microfiche are housed on the First floor, arranged by "ED" numbers. Also note that Ohio University Library has the "ED" microfiche despite what 'availability' says.

  4. Also note when it says at the bottom of the abstract "MF not available from EDRS" we do not have the microfiche, about 90% of "ED" materials are available on microfiche (nor electronic direct from EDRS).

  5. Increasingly "ED" items are also available full-text. Link to SearchNet and choose "ERIC Document Reproduction Service" (EDRS) and use the "ED" numbers obtained from your initial search. Note the format options (for larger items consulting the microfiche might be the best option, and sometimes the microfiche arrives before items are available electronically).

  6. Sometimes items may be indexed before the "ED" microfiche is received, or if the microfiche is missing, the option to view the material on-line is sometimes available (see 5 above).

  7. Individuals can search and purchase "ED" microfiche, printed materials, and/or items as full text at the ERIC Document Reproduction Service (EDRS) site. (Athens area users have more full-text access.)

  8. For modem users in particular, note that the full text "pdf" files can be quite large.

  9. For larger documents producing printed copies from the microfiche is the quickest and least expensive option. (The least expensive option is reproducing the microfiche if you have access to a microfiche reader.)

  10. The reader/laser printer units (machines #1, #10 & #11) produce the best prints.

  11. Eric documents are not listed in the Library's catalog (ALICE). At this point integrating ERIC records into ALICE is in the planning stage.

  12. Non-Athens user? Please note the following paragraphs.

If you are unable to access OhioLink, or want a different search engine, or want additional resources and services, there are an abundance of access sites for ERIC. One good place to start is the Educational Resources Information Center home page. Here one can search ERIC, get the latest news, information about component sites, and other related resources. For the teacher in particular try the AskERIC site at Syracuse University where one can also search the ERIC database itself, browse the virtual library, get/add lesson plans, use question and answer service, and more. The ERIC Document Reproduction Service is the document delivery component of the ERIC. Though EDRS is the agency working with institutions and distibutors, the individual can also search the database and in some cases users can on an a-hoc basis obtain full-text materials as well.

Education majors and those trouble shooting may wish to read on:

Until recently the printed RESOURCES IN EDUCATION (now in Annex) and assorted CD-ROM and microfiche indexes have been used to access ERIC documents and the CURRENT INDEX TO JOURNALS IN EDUCATION (CIJE) indexed educational periodical literature. The first early set is Higher Education, Microfiche 3 (ED 000 001 - ED 000 999); the author/title and subject indexes must be used (original printed copy has been lost, but re-printed in RIE), consult with Microform staff during day.

Another early set is Documents on the Disadvantaged, Microfiche 4 (ED 001 001 - ED 002 740); the author/title and subject indexes must be used (Government Documents FS5.237: ...)

A two volumes index, Office of Education Research Reports, 1956-1965 was published in 1967 (Vol 1, Resumes, Vol 2, Indexes; Government Documents FS5.237: ...). The reports themselves consists of ERIC microfiche ED 002 747 through ED 003 960 (Microfiche 5.)

Another set is Pacesetters in Innovation devoted to ESEA Title III projects to advance creativity in education (PACE), 1966-1969. Microfiche 2. This set has a subject/abstract index (L112 .P3 1969x, or Documents HE5.220: 20103-69 and HE.220: 20166) and the corresponding microfiche are arranged by "ES" accession numbers.

Another series is called Manpower Research (Index in Documents FS.212: 12036-yr & HE 5.212: 12036-yr); microfiche filed by "MP" numbers, (MP 000 002 through MP 000 391), Microfiche 1. This material is also in and found in the main Resources in Education ERIC series under ED numbers, Microfiche 7.

A large set of materials called AIM and ARM compiled by the Center for Vocational & Technical Education at Ohio State is also within the main portion of ERIC.

The main set of ERIC (ED# 10,000+) is based on the monthly and annual abstract/index service Resources in Education (ED 1.310: ...), 1966 to present (LB...). Resources in Education and the full-text microfiche (Microfiche 7) are on the First Floor (ED#s 2741 - 9999 were not assigned). In general, as noted, the SearchNet (OhioLink) is a better approach. As noted one can also search education journal articles (based on the Current Index to Journals in Education produced by ERIC). These are identified by "EJ" numbers which are not on microfiche, one must obtain the journal itself for article. Also note "CIJE" indexes in Reference. There is a microfiche cumulated index for the entire ERIC database-- Author; Title; Institution; Descriptor; and Identifier sections (Microfiche 6), updated annually. Sometimes for trouble shooting, or for general browsing of a topic or place the microfiche and printed indexes remain useful. Many of the ERIC Clearinghouses publish bulletins and ERIC Central publishes ERIC Review which provide news, trends, summaries, etc. Some of these materials are in the Government Documents area and some are with the ERIC printed indexes in the Microforms area. ERIC can be searched on OhioLink but note that any "ED" citations are already here in the library.
