Mardi Gras Guide at GNOA



Hey, hey, hey, pocky way:

Just in time for Mardi Gras, the Greater New Orleans Archivists
announces the addition of its GUIDE TO RESOURCES IN NEW ORLEANS
REPOSITORIES FOR THE STUDY OF CARNIVAL IN NEW ORLEANS to the GNOA
website at http://nutrias.org/gnoa/gnoa.htm.

Originally published as a booklet in 1993, the "Carnival Guide" is a
collaborative "documentation  analysis," focusing on New Orleans-area
holdings in public archives that researchers might use to gather
information about the history, activities, and impact of Carnival in the
Greater New Orleans region.   As the print version of this booklet will
soon go out of print, we have decided to extend its life digitally and
make it available to a wider audience online.

The "Carnival Guide" was the first such collaboration by Greater New
Orleans  Archivist member repositories.  Since then, GNOA has also
produced the much more extensive JEWS OF NEW ORLEANS: AN ARCHIVAL
GUIDE.  This publication describes research materials about New Orleans
Jewery held by archival repositories, congregations, and other
organizations in the city and by out of state repositories specializing
in the American Jewish  experience.  Information about purchasing this
guide can also be found on our website.

Please take a look.  And Happy Mardi Gras, everyone!
