A Brief History of AZGeoBib: Bibliography of Arizona Geology
Richard Trapp (11.06.2007)
A bibliography on the geology of Arizona had been kept and updated in written form by the Arizona Bureau of Mines (ABM) – one of several predecessors of the Arizona Geological Survey -- since the inception of the agency. The first published version was Arizona Bureau of Mines Bulletin No. 23, dated 1915-1916 (Lutrell, 1916). This bibliography was updated and published several times from 1920 to1974.
The first digital version of a bibliography of theses and dissertations on the geology of Arizona was compiled on a DEC Rainbow personal computer and published in paper form in 1985 (Wright and others, 1985) by the Arizona Bureau of Geology and Mineral Technology (ABGMT), the successor agency to the ABM. Dr. Steve Reynolds then began an effort to assemble a digital bibliography of all literature on the geology of Arizona, using the bibliography of theses and dissertations as a starting point and soliciting other digital and paper bibliographies for inclusion. In 1988 the ABGMT became the Arizona Geological Survey (AZGS). When Dr. Reynolds left the AZGS in 1991, Richard Trapp took over the development of the digital bibliography on the geology of Arizona. In 1995 the first version of AZGEOBIB, a digital bibliography on the geology of Arizona, was published in digital and paper form (Trapp and others, 1995). Many geologists at the AZGS have contributed to the digital bibliography since then.
