If you visit the History Computerization Project (at 
"http://www.history.la.ca.us/history") you will find: 
1) Annotated directories of hundreds of historical resources; 
2) Historical photos on display; and 
3) An online order form to request a free, printed, 
History Database tutorial on the use of computer database 
management for historical research, writing, and cataloging. 
 
The History Computerization Project is building a history information 
network for the exchange of information between historians, librarians, 
archivists, museum curators, preservation groups, and historical 
societies. The project employs the History Database program, running on 
IBM PC compatible computers. The program is used for both cataloging and 
research with all types of historical materials, including photographs, 
museum objects, archives, books, journals, and oral history interviews. 
The course textbook, Database Design: Applications of Library Cataloging 
Techniques, by David L. Clark, is published by the TAB division of 
McGraw-Hill.
