Description

Archives in Appalachia: A Directory is a book accessible through the University of Central Florida library’s Primo search. The book is composed of entries cataloging and describing the 181 repositories available throughout 195 counties. These counties are confined to the South-Central Appalachia region. Appalachia is a historically and culturally rich area and contains a great deal of information to be archived and preserved. This directory is a step in the process of organizing and preserving the political, social, cultural, and economic history of Appalachia. In the table of contents, there is also a section on “Coming Attractions,” which lists agencies that did not collect material but aim to do so in the future. The directory also provides indexes that are sorted by subject matter and material type; this was done so to help researchers narrow down information on time. As established earlier, this directory covers a wide range of valuable information in many fields of work.
