A comprehensive list of the library's holdings has been compiled. With a locator key and category color
coding guide at the beginning, the list is sorted into two sections: Locator Number and Alphabetically By Titles. There is a variety
of research material available with an emphasis on Kitsap County information. This material consists of books, periodicals,
microfilm, microfiche, CD's, and papers. Each of these categories is in a designated section and each section, in
its turn, is divided into the following classifications: Instructions Guides Catalogs Compendia Records History (family,
general, ethnic groups) Other Countries Census USA (regions, states, Washington)
For further identification, the foregoing classifications are color coded.
The books range from general information such as encyclopedia to specific such as church or land records. Periodicals
include major genealogical magazines plus journals from miscellaneous genealogical societies both in-state and out-of-state
as well as other countries, e.g. Sweden.
The microfilm collection consists of census rolls, the Washington State
Death Index and Birth Index.
More records such as Family Tree Maker, Social Security Death Index, some special
census, marriage records, and the United States phone index are available in CD form.
In the hanging files may
be found special small booklets and papers that may include letters as well as family information. Equipment for the
use of the above material includes a copy machine, microfilm reader, two microfiche readers, and a computer. A comprehensive
catalog of the library's holdings is available. The Death Records 1892-1907, Kitsap County, Washington publication
is currently available at the library. For more information about
