References on the American Indian Use of Fire in Ecosystems
REFERENCES ON THE AMERICAN INDIAN USE OF FIRE IN ECOSYSTEMS compiled by Gerald W. Williams, Ph.D. National Historian (retired) USDA Forest Service Washington, D.C. May 18, 2005 Evidence for the purposeful use of fire by American Indians – also termed Native Americans, Indigenous People, and First Nations/People – in many ecosystems has been easy to document but difficult to substantiate. Many researchers discount the fact that the American Indians changed greatly the ecosystems for their use and survival (Butzer 1992; Denevan 1992; Doolittle 1992; Krech 1999; Sale 1990; Whitney 1994). Fire scientists and ecologists often find old fire scars in trees going back hundreds of years. Geographers studying lake sediments often find evidence of charcoal layers going back thousands of years, attributing the data to prehistoric fires caused by global warming and drying conditions. Since the trees and sediments cannot document how the fires started, lightning becomes the easiest “natural” explanation (Allen 2002, Harvey 1908, McKenzie et al. 2004, Parker 2002, Wedel 1957). However, there is a growing literature that many or most of the natural fires were intentionally caused. Many people believe that North America, before the coming of the Spanish explorers, missionaries, and settlers, was a totally pristine, natural, wilderness world with ancient forests covering the landscapes. This ideal world was populated by millions of Indian people who, somewhat amazingly, “were transparent in the landscape, living as natural elements of the ecosphere. Their world, the New World of Columbus, was a world of barely perceptible human disturbance (Shetler 1982: 226).” This peaceful, mythic, magical ideal – sometimes referred to as tabula rasa (from the Latin for a clean slate, without features, starting from the beginning where the land is “empty and free”) – has symbolized the thinking behind much of the modern environmental movement. -

Bibliographical Guides to the History of American Libraries
ILLINO I S UNIVERSITY OF ILLINOIS AT URBANA-CHAMPAIGN PRODUCTION NOTE University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign Library Large-scale Digitization Project, 2007. University of Illinois Library School ze 2J. OCCASIONAL PAPERS h, 2> Number 32 February 1953 ?cD. 2 Bibliographical Guides to the History of American Libraries by Barbara Bronson Chief Librarian, Post Library, Fort Benning, Georgia An obvious means of opening a particular field of research is to gain knowledge of its existing bibliographical apparatus. With this in view the following paper was prepared in Library Science 430, the course entitled Advanced Reference Service, at the University of Illinois Library School. The purpose was to discover and evalu- ate available guides to materials which would be of interest to persons investigating the history of American libraries. General Works In approaching American library development a start may be made with certain tools whose inclusions are broad, and whose pertinence is apparent once they are men- tioned. H. G. T. Cannons' Bibliography of Library Economy, 1876-1920, and Library Literature, covering 1920 to date, have the dubious virtue of being the most compre- hensive. As many will recall, Cannons indexes articles appearing in sixty-six English and American periodicals relating to librarianship, and includes a few of special importance from general magazines in other languages. Library Literature provides a partially annotated index to current books, pamphlets, and periodical matter relevant to the library profession. Library Journal, 1876 to dateý and Library Quarterly, 1931 to date, in addition to being great repositories, afford listing and review of current material. Of major value is J.
