First Published in 1992. This title is the first volume in the 3-volume series titled Religious Information Systems Series. This updated directory recognised that the number of religious groups would not remain static as population increases, urbanization, and immigration continue to provide a nurturing environment for new religious expressions. This new edition will fill an information gap and provide basic data about each religious group and be regularly updated as changes in the religious community dictate (annually or bi-annually).

Genealogists and other historical researchers have valued the first two editions of this work, often referred to as the genealogist's bible."" The new edition continues that tradition. Intended as a handbook and a guide to selecting, locating, and using appropriate primary and secondary resources, The Source also functions as an instructional tool for novice genealogists and a refresher course for experienced researchers. More than 30 experts in this field--genealogists, historians, librarians, and archivists--prepared the 20 signed chapters, which are well written, easy to read, and include many helpful hints for getting the most out of whatever information is acquired. Each chapter ends with an extensive bibliography and is further enriched by tables, black-and-white illustrations, and examples of documents. Eight appendixes include the expected contact information for groups and institutions that persons studying genealogy and history need to find. ""
