APPROVAL BY THESIS DIRECTOR This thesis has been approved on the date shown below: Assistant Professor of Library Science PREFACE The original sources that were used in the preparation of this bibliographic thesis are located in the Arizona Pioneer’s Historical Society and the Special Collections Division of The University of Arizona. Four steps were used in the preparation of this thesis: gathering of the information, reducing it to workable form, forming the bibliographic entry, and choosing and arranging the subject head­ ings. A. Bibliographic Entry The bibliographic procedure used in the preparation of the author cards tends to follow standard practices with some variations from a normal entry. The full name of the author is used and is derived from the official journals of the various Territorial Legisla­ tures. The title of the act, resolution, or memorial is underlined in order to give it emphasis and to avoid confusing it with the sources from which it was taken. The sources used are the official publications of the various Territorial Legislatures which contain all of the acts, resolutions, and memorials. The specific type of legislation is then listed together with the date of approval and pagination. The main body of the entry contains a digest of the particular legislation introduced, and from this description the subject heading ill iv was developed. Sears List of Subject Headings^ was used as the basis for headings, but variations were added depending upon the complexity of the subject matter under consideration. An example of this is in COUNTY GOVERNMENT where it was necessary to break down the subject into further subdivisions by various county officials. B. Procedures Used The digest of the act, resolution, or memorial was recorded onto magnetic tape and reduced to workable form. Following classifica­ tion by subject heading, it was necessary to consult the official journals of the various legislatures to determine the name of the legislator who introduced the specific act, resolution, or memorial. After machine duplication of the complete entry, the various entries were filed by author, title, and subject following the American Library 2 Association filing rules. 1.
