Thanks for the replies to my New Martinsville request. Those out-of-the- way libraries are so often useful. For example, our local library has the only copy of several titles outside the state library holdings. In Pittsburgh, I have been able to use hard copies rather than microfilms for city directories at the North Side branch. At the main library in Oakland, one has to hover like a Harpie for a reader if the day is busy. Peg [email protected]
