Repositories of Primary Sources
http://www.uidaho.edu/special-collections/Other.Repositories.html

I think this is going to be one of my favorite URLs.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

For a selection of library catalogs online, try:

St. Joseph County Public Library Servers Database Search Form
http://sjcpl.lib.in.us/Databases/PubLibServFind.html

At the page, click on "Public Library Servers List." This will take you into
a menu of three choices: Gopher, WWW & TelNet.

WWW is the only one I have used so far. This will list all the libraries that are
online, however, some are only available by Gopher which I haven't learned yet.

With this URL, you can check the different library catalogs for books on your
Warren family and/or Warren genealogy. I've gotten varied results from doing both
kinds of searches. Then, when you find a book you want, first check your local central
library to see if they have it and, if not, try to order it by Inter-Library Loan, or
find another library that has it. Or buy a copy of it from a genealogy book store, etc.

Example:
Found this in Los Angeles Public Library online catalog:
