Was: Retonos de Espana En Nueva Galicia/WorldCat


 

Yes this is great you have your own copy of a hard to find book [WorldCat showed it is available at only 6 libraries] available to you close by. But for other books that you might want to consider doing an ILL for I would look at WorldCat. Check with your local library and see if they subscribe to WorldCat and if you can access it at home or maybe you can access it only at the branch or a University library. . .in fact maybe taking Adult continuing education or being a friend of the library will allow you to access WorldCat from home. Your local large University library might surprise you as to how much information they have on Jalisco. I live close to Duke and they have soooo much that it will take me many years to be comfortable that I've accessed all the info that might be valuable to my research.

WorldCat is a Library Catalog of Libraries all over the world. When you access it and plug in keywords like "Los Altos de Jalisco" you get results like this:

==============================

So you can see this is only the first ten hits of 83 books and a lot of libraries own some of the books so I would hope that you would be able to do ILL on some of them.

Anyway I just wanted to take that opportunity to keep a small hilight on a resource that I find extremely important.

        books in the series covering different time periods.  You should feel free to use mine -- all in Spanish! When we
        finally coordinate schedules we'll be able to connect the dots and families..
